Silent Sprint- A Solo Show by Santanu Dey

We’re thrilled to announce 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗼 𝗲𝘅𝗵𝗶𝗯𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝗦𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘂 𝗗𝗲𝘆 — a milestone moment! -𝗦𝗶𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗦𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴
Santanu returns with works that lay bare the fragile balance between ecology and our constructed realities, tracing how humans inch by inch claim nature, leaving behind footprints of an artificial, mechanical world. His works echo urgent questions of ecology, consumerism, and survival.

From the Director:

It gives me immense pride to present Silent Spring—the second solo exhibition of Santanu Dey. This is a special moment for us at Art Incept, as Santanu’s show marks our very first second solo with any of our artists. Working with early-career artists, our journey is often about nurturing beginnings. To now witness one of our own artists grow, evolve, and return with a second body of work is both an achievement for the artist and a milestone for us as a gallery.
Santanu has remained deeply committed to his practice from the very start. His work explores the shifting relationship between nature and the urban landscape, often reimagining industrial remnants such as e-waste, steel, and paper into quiet, poetic forms. These materials—discarded, overlooked, yet deeply symbolic—become vehicles for reflection on ecological strain, consumer culture, and environmental loss.

What makes Santanu’s practice truly compelling is the coherence between his message, his materials, and the way he lives his life. His language is minimal yet resonant, speaking softly but urgently of the fragility of our natural world and the quiet impacts of modern life.

It is with great pleasure and pride that we present Silent Spring, a powerful continuation of Santanu’s artistic journey. We hope this exhibition not only reflects his evolution as an artist but also prompts us to pause, reflect, and reimagine the spaces we build—and the traces we leave behind.
