New digital archive promotes South Indian visual artists and their works

A new digital archive promotes visual artists of South India in a bid to give them a leg up in the art market

An artist and her efforts to create a space for her peers forms the foundation of A Moxie Tale, a digital archive that promotes visual artists from South India.

Now, in its nascent stages, the platform attempts to train the spotlight on South Indian practices, more specifically from Tamil Nadu, and doubles up as a digital space for display, which connoisseurs can browse and opt to support.

Behind it is Moksha Kumar, a Chennai-based artist and curator. Shapes, architecture and art have been constant companions for Moksha, and so A Moxie Tale, to her, seems like a natural destination.
