The digital meets physical and art meets utility in an upcoming digital exhibition exploring the liveable expression of artist Amrit Pal Singh’s fantastical rooms. His lovable toy faces are a celebration of a whimsical childhood that transcends age and persists through adulthood. A delightful sense of playfulness characterises Amrit’s 3D toy-like renditions of characters, figures, and movements through contemporary culture.
A series of exhibitions will showcase the artist's ever-growing collection of toy faces that have reimagined inspiring humans from the fields of music, technology, and 90s web culture. Coinciding with his 100th NFT drop, Amrit’s first solo exhibition, 'Toy Face Tour' returns to the project’s origins by delving into icons from the art world. The solo exhibition will take the form of a three-city tour featuring a physical toy room made to human scale with toy-like interpretation of iconic works of furniture, unveiling seven new toy faces of iconic artists highlighted by an official collaboration with the M.F. Husain estate, presented by Method and HEFTY.art.
“We are absolutely thrilled to be joining forces with Amrit Pal for his upcoming solo showcase, where his acclaimed Toy Faces and Toy Room creations will come to life in a physical environment. The exceptional value of Amrit’s work is undeniable, and witnessing it in a tangible form is genuinely exhilarating. With HEFTY.art and Method leading the charge, this project signifies a groundbreaking moment in the evolution of digital art and NFTs, and we are eager to see its influence on art lovers throughout the Indian subcontinent.”Ashish Chowdhry, Co-Founder, Hefty
