Remaining true to the old aesthetic and the vision of Preet Nagar – this community of artists was brought alive by our residents as we all worked by day and caught up over bonfires, warm conversations over beaten coffee and long evening walks in the fields.

An audience of the local community later was requested to write a love-note to anyone they wished. Women wrote to their brothers, grandmothers & grandfathers wrote to their long lost friends , children wrote to their mothers and young men wrote to lovers they haven’t yet met.
An old friend of Preet Lari magazine brought his sound system from the neighbouring village Lopoke and everyone ended the evening with hot tea and samosas.[/cs_text][/cs_column][/cs_row][cs_row id=”” class=” ” style=”margin: 0px auto; padding: 0px; ” visibility=”” inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” bg_color=””][cs_column id=”” class=”” style=”padding: 0px; ” bg_color=”” fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″][x_image type=”none” src=”http://preetnagarresidency.in/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/sadhana-sitting.jpg” alt=”” link=”false” href=”#” title=”” target=”” info=”none” info_place=”top” info_trigger=”hover” info_content=””][x_image type=”none” src=”http://preetnagarresidency.in/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/sadhana3-1.jpg” alt=”” link=”false” href=”#” title=”” target=”” info=”none” info_place=”top” info_trigger=”hover” info_content=””][x_image type=”none” src=”http://preetnagarresidency.in/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/kids-sitting-1.jpg” alt=”” link=”false” href=”#” title=”” target=”” info=”none” info_place=”top” info_trigger=”hover” info_content=””][/cs_column][/cs_row][cs_row id=”” class=” ” style=”margin: 0px auto; padding: 0px; ” visibility=”” inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” bg_color=””][cs_column id=”” class=”” style=”padding: 0px; ” bg_color=”” fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″][x_text_type prefix=”Site specific installation ” strings=”by Debora Mo ” suffix=”at the brick kiln.” tag=”h3″ type_speed=”50″ start_delay=”0″ back_speed=”50″ back_delay=”3000″ loop=”false” show_cursor=”true” cursor=”|” looks_like=”h3″][/cs_column][/cs_row][cs_row id=”” class=” ” style=”margin: 0px auto; padding: 0px; ” visibility=”” inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” bg_color=””][cs_column id=”” class=”” style=”padding: 0px; ” bg_color=”” fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″][cs_text id=”” class=”” style=”” text_align=””]Debora Mo is a London based artist who works with a variety of materials to create sculptures and installations which often question, comment or play puns on themes like gender and the body.
