The Rooted Nomad” is an immersive experience that brings to life the extraordinary worlds created by MF Husain. This encompassing production combines animated renditions of Husain’s paintings, original music, and an evocative storyline, providing visitors with a multisensory journey through the artist’s life and work.

MF Husain, renowned for his vibrant and dynamic style, was a prolific artist whose work spanned numerous themes and periods. His open-mindedness and eternal curiosity, his international explorations as well as his ability to translate the multiplicities of India’s cultural heritage, provided a rich tapestry for this production. The immersive captures Husain’s spirit of wanderlust and his deep connection to his roots, illustrated through 182 of his artworks.

The exhibit is meticulously structured into eight scenes, each one representing a significant period or theme in Husain’s life. It begins with a paper plane symbolizing his wandering spirit, taking visitors back to 1947 and the dawn of India’s independence. Subsequent scenes delve into his early life in Mumbai, his artistic evolution, and his engagement with Indian culture’s primordial elements. The narrative then explores his international acclaim and his artistic responses to Western influences.

The production’s creators, led by a team of experienced artists and sound designers, paid close attention to the integration of music, choreography, and visual narration. Marco Schiavoni’s original music compositions, specially crafted for this exhibit, blend seamlessly with Husain’s visual motifs, enhancing the emotional impact of the storytelling.

Ultimately, “The Rooted Nomad” aims to ignite a deeper appreciation and curiosity about MF Husain and his art. By constructing a profound sensory experience, the exhibit encourages visitors to explore and learn more about the artist’s indelible legacy.

The immersive experience is designed by Visioni Srl, Rome.
