Jitish Kallat, Covering Letter, 2012

Jitish Kallat: Covering Letter • Tangled Hierarchy

Adam Heardman on Jitish Kallat’s installation and curated exhibition confronting colonialism

‘Dear Friend,’ the letter begins. ‘Friends have been urging me to write to you for the sake of humanity.’ In a vast, darkened room on the ground floor of the John Hansard Gallery, these words scroll upwards, projected onto a sheet of fog which descends in streams from the top of an archway and evaporates continually before reaching the floor. The backlit projection shines partially through the translucent mist so that the words also appear to move outwards into the room along the ground. Viewers can walk under the arch so that they pass through the curtain of vapour and the disappearing words. As the lines proceed, it is revealed that this is a last-minute appeal against imminent war, written on July 23rd, 1939, by Mahatma Gandhi to one Herr Hitler.
