| Harpreet Singh with his paintings |
"Organized Chaos" is is an exhibition by Harpreet Singh, held at the Triveni Gallery of the Triveni Kala Sangam in Delhi from December 5th to 13th, 2025. Harpreet Singh is an abstract artist who values ideas over form. His art clearly reflects the experience of an artist coming from a well-organized city like Chandigarh to the chaotic city of Delhi, which boasts of order. Only a sensitive artist can understand how Delhi, a city filled with immense human activity, a turbulent and constantly restless bustle, and its connected cities, in their structural density, render human presence meaningless. Therefore, in Harpreet's work, we find abstract structures that could be the face of any city. But there is no human face to accompany this face because such a face is no longer possible to associate with any city. Delhi has no face of its own, no personality that completes its identity.
Delhi is not perfect, and that is why its dreams, which are actually the dreams of the people, are never fulfilled. Therefore, there are structures, not structures. This pain is readily felt in Harpreet's work. It can also be understood through the chaos that pervades the structures in his art. This exhibition includes works made on everything from scraps of wood to computer magazines and other similar materials, revealing his creative restlessness. This can also be seen as the presence of a sense of consciousness within the inanimate. The sheer emptiness within this presence reveals the structural nature of the metropolis, which lacks space for life.
