In less than 10 days, the Kochi-Muziris Biennale will draw to a close. But for one artist and a collective, this isn’t the end of the journey. Filmmaker and artist KM Madhusudhanan and New Delhi-based Raqs Media Collective, a group of three media practitioners—Jeebesh Bagchi, Monica Narula and Shuddhabrata Sengupta—have been invited to showcase their work at the 56th Venice Biennale, which is being curated this year by Okwui Enwezor.

“I consider this a great opportunity to expand and explore further my interest in art,” says Madhusudhanan, the only Malayalee artist to be showing at the Venice Biennale. The oldest Biennale in the world, the six month art extravaganza will begin on May 9.
