between lies and truth
13-23 SEPTEMBER 2025
In an age where facts dissolve into fiction and narratives shift with every retelling, the boundary between lies and truth has never been more fragile. This exhibition, Between Lies and Truth, forms a significant chapter in Art Beyond Borders - FS Karachiwala’s third global online art exhibition; bringing together twenty (20) artists whose works interrogate the unstable terrain between certainty and doubt.
The exhibition explores the layered ambiguities of our time: fractured realities, mediated experiences and memories that blur into imagination. Rather than presenting truth and lies as opposing absolutes, the participating artists navigate the grey zones where they interconnect. Their practices unfold across painting, installation and digital interventions revealing contradictions, exposing illusions and questioning the authority of perception.
In these works, truth becomes a shifting construct, refracted through culture, heritage, memory and the subjectivity of experience. What may appear stable from one perspective dissolves into uncertainty when viewed from another. This is not merely a collapse of clarity but a recognition of how meaning is continuously redefined in dialogue with time, emotion and context.
Between Lies and Truth, unsettling space to pause, reflect and confront the paradoxes that shape our present moment. By opening a conversation on authenticity, perception and the unseen layers beneath the surface, the exhibition stresses the urgent relevance of art as a site where complex realities can be felt, questioned and reimagined.

Dil se... (straight from the heart...)
12-22 MARCH 2025
‘Dil Se…’, a global online art exhibition and a significant chapter in FS Karachiwala's Art Beyond Borders (2nd global art exhibition) ; brings together 21 distinguished artists, each offering a profound expression of creativity, emotion and transcendent storytelling.
A profound exploration of nostalgia, memory, resilience and emotional depth, bringing together artists whose works stem from personal experiences, cultural reflections and human connections. Through diverse artistic mediums, the exhibition bridges past and present, linking retro aesthetics with contemporary interpretations, personal narratives with universal emotions, and structured compositions with spontaneous expressions. From modernizing vintage objects and lifestyle elements of the 1960s-1980s to capturing the quiet strength of nature, memory and human resilience, each artwork embodies a deeply personal yet widely relatable sentiment.
The artists explore into themes of adaptation, cultural displacement, intergenerational trauma and the profound impact of human behavior on relationships and surroundings. Some works reflect the fluid nature of belonging, others reimagine abstract forms of human emotions, while several pieces celebrate healing, recovery and transformation. The interplay of color, texture, materiality and form evokes a sense of longing, love and the mysteries of existence; much like the poetic verses of Amrita Pritam, where emotions stay in silence and imagination.
'Dil Se...' , embarking on an intimate journey, witnessing stories told through visual language that transcends borders. It is an ode to human connections, unspoken emotions and the enduring power of art to evoke, heal and unite.
