Exhibit review: How one trip to Banaras inspired nearly 20 different artistic visions

From cremation ghats and Ganga Aarti to architecture and portraiture, Lalitkala Campus artists transform a shared study trip into distinct visual narratives.

‘HOMAGE TO BANARAS’, running at the Kathmandu Art Gallery, brings together close to twenty emerging Nepali artists from Lalitkala Campus, each of whom travelled to Varanasi, the sacred sister city of Kathmandu, on the same educational visit and returned with a different city entirely.
