Artville Contemporary Artist Of The Day 
Jitish Kallat
Title: Untitled (Eclipse) 3
Year: 2007
Medium: Acrylic on canvas, triptych
Size: 274 x 518 cm

Kallat’s huge triptych Untitled (Eclipse) 3, rays of sunshine emanate from the background; the grand radiance that forms the backdrop for the portraits is in sharp contrast to the caricaturesque rendition of the urban detritus brimming out of the unkempt locks of the children. Thus above their forehead are rendered a thousand colliding stories; perhaps the complex narrative of 18 million people living on an island of 600 square kilometers that is Mumbai.
