On International Women’s Day 2023, Air India Express organized an art appreciation evening at Kochi to felicitate G.S Smitha whose latest painting exhibited at Kochi Biennale became a tail art of one of the Boeing 737- 800 aircraft of Air India Express. The replica of the tail art installed at Terminal 3 of the Cochin International Airport (CIAL) served as the backdrop for the aesthetic event. Manu G, Airport Director of CIAL, participated in the evening along with Bose Krishnamachari, President of Kochi Biennale Foundation, as Guest of Honour.
The tail art is an adaptation of the original acrylic painting by Smitha GS. In this painting, the artist travels through a parallel timeline via the planes of memory, recreating colorful landscapes filled with chameleons, grasshoppers, micro-organisms, and aquatic creatures.
