An art gallery reflects a personality of an artist. It detaches oneself from the presense and makes him see a world through a different lens. It becomes a space of silence as well as voices, giving an opportunity to enjoy the solitude and at the same time allows the exchange of thoughts and ideas that the artist brings into light. Art should not just limit itself to the enthusiast but also invite commoners. The built suggests strong disconnection from the outside by submerging itself into the mount. It gives an opportunity for people to explore the landscape in its natural state through its meandering approach. The openings rising from the ground creates a sense of curiosity by showing small glimpses of the art that lies beneath.
