Srinivas Harivanam (b.1992) works between New Delhi & Bangalore. He emphasizes 'frictional awareness" in his thinking. His identification with the 'ecology of friction' enclaves the sense of ಸುಳಿದಾಡುವಿಕೆ [suḷidāduvike] within the context of history, mediation, and knowing. His techniques involve sculptural hovering, temporal swing, and tweaking via installations, moving images, and text. He inherits the potential of swing in a ‘Boomerang’ sense as a functor—embedding recursion as a modality to make friction collapse, resonate, or spin forth with[out] directionality.

ಸುಳಿದಾಡುವಿಕೆ [suḷidāduvike] - a state of becoming non-stagnant, a deviation, and an image with flight. [ non-coherent ] 

suḷi + āḍu - suḷidāduvike  

Suli from proto-dravidian root: cuṭ- or suṭ –, the nearest meaning "to turn, hover, twist, whirl, ominous curve, wind".
