DISCOVERY
A journey through the fragmented memories of an alternate universe.
By Boomranng Studio

Welcome to Cosmicpunk - an immersive journey through the fragmented memories and mythologies of an alternate universe shaped by the enigmatic presence of the Dark Sun, a cosmic paradox so powerful, it fractured civilizations and rewrote the fabric of belief.
This show is a collection of artefacts that have crossed over from the Cosmicpunk Universe into our reality. They are relics of a people whose culture is fuelled by curiosity, a world which never shies away from pushing the boundaries of knowledge in any form; magic or science. This is a Universe where mythos and logos are both expressions of the same imagination - an imagination that reshapes and redefines the very reality that it inhabits. And with this radical acceptance of curiosity, the only inevitable outcome is exploration.
How does a civilization react to a world altering discovery? What is it about faith that wedges irreconcilable contradictions and differences between perspectives? How does the spirit of life endure the worst kind of oppression? What lies beyond the grasp of the conscious and known? These questions carefully embroidered, and sometimes violently embroiled in the CosmicPunk universe are an invitation for the viewer to take one step beyond the threshold of the usual, one step farther into the unknown.
Boomranng Studio, the creator of Cosmicpunk Universe, is a Mumbai-based Artist duo of Sonal Vasave and Makarand Narkar. Cosmicpunk is a labour of their love, born out of their penchant for hope and a relentless drive to capture the human experience.
Many South East Asian cultural styles and rituals find their projections into the collection. So does the spirit of the West. The past juxtaposes into the future, and yesterday’s ambition morphs into the relentlessness of tomorrow.
