I have a deep connection with horses," confesses artist and filmmaker Muzaffar Ali, whose upcoming exhibition, Farasnama-The Legend of the Horse, scheduled from October 19-28 at Bikaner House's Centre of Contemporary Art (CCA) in Delhi, celebrates his favourite subject. "Faras translates to 'horse' in Urdu. It is the story of the horse and how it becomes a metaphor in my world," he adds. "There's something beyond the back of a horse. It's the loyalty, surrender, love in its eyes...you see these things only if you are face-to-face with it."
