Entanglement
Entangled, I hold my space here
by Anitagarwal
​
i find myself
animated
supported
and suspended
within the entangled mass
​
a fluid stillness
nestling in the groves
of overlapping
time and space
and here
i am
losing
yet locating myself
cocooned in this web
of interconnectedness
This series is an inquiry into "Entanglement" across various registers—philosophical, scientific, and the pragmatic realities of social, economic, and political systems. These drawings are the artist's response to this intertwining of interconnected energies, existences, and ways of being and non-being.
​
These drawings relate to the concept of entanglement discussed in Vedanta—part of the Upanishads (Hindu scriptures)—which raises fundamental metaphysical questions about the existence of separate entities and the nature of their interactions and correlation. Vedanta's focus is on a spiritual, unified consciousness rather than the material interactions of particles as in quantum mechanics. It explores the implications of such interconnectedness, challenging our understanding of individual objects, causality, and the fundamental nature of reality by suggesting a deeply holistic and non-local universe.

Entanglement in Nature
These drawings are my response to the concept of entanglement mentioned in Vedanta—part of the Upanishads (Hindu scriptures)—which raises fundamental metaphysical questions about the existence of separate entities and the nature of their interactions and correlations. It also explores the implications of this interconnectedness, challenging our understanding of individuality, causality, and the essence of reality.
The vibrant colours in these works are inspired by the burst of colours that I encounter during my daily walks to and from my studio and around London—flowers, berries, trees...
