BODY LANGUAGE

Our cover features Rithika Merchant’s The Gates of Horn and Ivory (2020), currently on display in Bvlgari’s exhibition in Mumbai, as the artist explores dreams and realities through creatures, mythology and symbolism. The work speaks to this issue, Body Language, as we delve into what it means to be human in an exploration of the mind, body and soul.
