Founded by artist and professor Vibhav Kapoor, Darshan Centre is a research + studio organisation operating at the intersection of art, technology, and philosophy.
Darshan is the Hindi word for philosophy, which comes from its Sanskrit root drish that means “to see.” The Centre’s mission is to become a contemporary reflection of society by conducting & supporting indigenous and interdisciplinary artistic research; offering educational programs; curating exhibitions of photographic & related visual art and undertaking commissioned studio projects. Working with a diverse range of photographic technologies, including traditional and hybrid processes, the Centre aims to engage communities through disseminating knowledge of art and culture at large. The Centre is a collaboration with Delhi based think tank Institute for Competitiveness, India.
