CPB 2019 Artist Folio

The Fauna of Mirrors is an ancient Chinese myth that behind every mirror there lies an entirely different world inhabited by creatures unknown to earth. Photography is the new mirror portal of our age that creates an alternate universe filled with powerful images that reflect our world while having their own existence as spectres. The romance of photography with its truths and lies has fascinated human beings and become an archive of the planet. The curatorial concept uses the ancient myth to ruminate in a philosophical and poetic way around photography today. Curated by celebrated artist Pushpamala N, the 2nd edition of Chennai Photo Biennale showcased the works of 50 artists from 13 countries across 6 venues in Chennai.

Inside this collectable Artist Folio are the works of ten of the exhibiting artists from CPB 2019 who have graciously donated their works to the CPB Foundation. The Fauna of Mirrors Box is a special edition folio conceptualised by the CPB Foundation and curated by Pushpamala N. Each print is part of a limited edition of 50 with 12 artist proofs. Each folio is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity signed by the artists. Each donating artist, the curator and CPB Foundation will receive an un-numbered Artist Proof edition.
