Through August 2021, Chemould is exhibiting a retrospective of one of India’s most special artists, Mehlli Gobhai. In this episode with Jerry Pinto, we talk about the incredible life lived by Mehlli, as Jerry, one of his closest friends, also became primary caregiver toward the end of his life. Jerry recalls how Gobhai, recallling him as “a work of art himself”,  began to see art, his process of making art, using colour and his ability to make him challenge art’s very definition. Through remembering Gobhai, filled with anecdotes Jerry candidly speaks of how Mehlli did not care for the art market or critics but cared deeply of how his work did its unsuspected magic on the person who went to it and confronted it.
