Hetain Patel: Being Post-modern 18/05/2015 8:04 am Sunetra Senior Reminiscent of the ‘beat movement’ in nineteen-fifties America, Hetain embodies the philosophy of living in the moment through his performance art and sculptures. Perhaps his statements are even truer to the idea of being, in that they carry no bias: “In terms of consumerism, Hollywood is such a big machine, and we can’t help but have it inhabit our world” he stated, “some might say it’s brainwashing, but I like to study both sides. I love superhero films as well as arthouse movies and identify with it all. People can take away from it what they want.” Indeed, whether he is putting together a glimmering Spiderman costume, sharing anecdotes from a British-Asian perspective, or imitating our resident movie stars, his observations about identity are as playful as they are profound. Currently a New Wave Associate at Sadler's Wells Theatre, with installations across the world – including the Tate Modern and Chatterjee and Lal gallery in Mumbai – Hetain is noted as a professional conceptual artist.
