My Molten Sky

Solo Exhibition at MPND gallery in Loughborough, UK
21st November 2025 to 21st February 2026

My Molten Sky is a solo exhibition by artist Janhavi Sharma. Using black-and-white photography and sculptural installation, Sharma explores how stories—of place, memory, and loss—are formed, broken apart, and remade. My Molten Sky offers a quiet, radical approach to storytelling—one that holds space for uncertainty, and lets meaning shift rather than settle. The exhibition opens on Friday 21 November 2025 as part of Lboro Lates at Modern Painters, New Decorators in Loughborough.

Through a careful vocabulary of image and object, My Molten Sky brings the emotional and ecological into shared focus. Small, intimate photographs sit alongside sculptural materials that echo and interpret them. Sharma’s images—some staged, others spontaneous—drift between remembering and forgetting. Rather than presenting a single story, the works linger in the spaces between images, where meaning slips, reforms, and returns.

At its heart, the exhibition asks how stories stick. Drawing from the traditions of folklore—repetition, exaggeration, and performative retelling—Sharma builds a loose, location-less mythology. Her images ask: What happened by the time you came back to feed? How do you come back to a place that’s no longer the same? What remains when the world moves faster than your sense of time?

A floor plan is not provided, as the works are intended to be experienced as a constellation. Considering each piece as one continuous body of work that echoes and rhymes with another the exhibition invites viewers to read the works relationally.

The making of this project was jointly supported by MPND projects and a bursary from Freelands Foundation UK.
