He is a multidisciplinary artist who engages the use of various raw materials to deconstruct memories with an aesthetic sensibility.

The exhibition includes photographs and videos to construct challenging narritives and stories.

Mandal states: "In my works quotidian materials, ordinary events invite viewers to witness and confront raw tactility in interactive environments, where kinetic mechanisms seem playful, but are actually uncanny and sometimes disconcerting constructions.

On VASA Exhibitions:

VASA Exhibitions for 11 years has provided an international platform for individual and group exhibitions, collaborative exhibitions with various organizations and galleries and exhibitions that follow a particular theme or inquiry such as “Where Do We Go Now” curated by Rui Cepeda and the “Kharkiv School of Photography: Soviet Censorship to New Aesthetics” curated by Igor Manko.

VASA Exhibitions are international and multicultural.  The curatorial team has strived to present work that not only represents the photographers but also the social, historical and cultural.  As an online international project, VASA works to engage various digital tools.  Video, as an example, not only offers the potential for the presentation of works, it provides the opportunity and framework for the voice of the author to be seen and heard.   Through image, text, sound and animation, VASA works to expand the exhibition paradigm and provide a rich experience for the viewer (as well as the author).

VASA Exhibitions provides a viewing and research environment by archiving all of the exhibitions in their entirety. For example, the viewer may view a 2009 exhibition as it was presented and not just traces of its existence.

VASA Exhibitions (a program in VASA) includes images, videos and sound works.
