Until 2005, Sudhir Patwardhan lived two lives — that of a radiologist and a painter. If the former was his primary occupation, the latter occupied the better part of his life. The two ends of the spectrum have always co-existed in his world with one informing the other. The Mumbai-based artist’s works have always represented the concerns of the people and his latest exhibition, Spectres, once again inspects the concept of public space in India and the idea of loneliness.
