From May 28 till June 3, 9 am–4 pm each day, the BIA Institute in Jorpati becomes a space for immersion, reflection, andcelebrationas the Pancha Pranali exhibition returns for its second edition.

Led by the 72nd Miss Nepal World Ms. Srichchha Pradhan alongside the founders of the BIA Institute, this year’s show invites visitors to experience the depth and diversity of thefive classical elements— earth, water, fire, air, and ether — through artworks created by artists with disabilities. Each day is dedicated to one element, offering a unique thematic rhythm that encourages repeat visits and thoughtful engagement.

A Festival of Inclusion and Creativity

Pancha Pranali (literally “Five Processes” or “Five Systems”) centers accessibility and representation, giving artists with disabilities a prominent platform to share their visions. Theexhibitionforegrounds creative excellence while challenging conventional narratives about disability and artistic practice. With works spanning painting, sculpture, installation, mixed media, and time-based art, Pancha Pranali offers a rich, multi-sensory program that emphasizes ability, not limitation.

Five elements, five days

• Day 1 — Earth: Grounding, memory, and materiality. The opening day anchors visitors in tactile explorations of soil, clay, stone, and found materials. Artists consider memory, heritage, and the body’s relationship to the land.
• Day 2 — Water: Flow, emotion, and transformation. Works on this day explore fluidity and resilience, using water as metaphor and medium to discuss healing, migration, and continuity.
• Day 3 — Fire: Energy, change, and resistance. Fire-themed pieces interrogate urgency, anger, passion, and renewal; expect bold color, dynamic forms, and works that spark conversation.
• Day 4 — Air: Breath, movement, and imagination. Air-focused art evokes transience and freedom—sound pieces, kinetic works, and light installations encourage quiet reflection and the experience of presence.
• Day 5 — Ether: Space, connection, and the unseen. The final day invites contemplative practice, exploring spirituality, interconnection, and ideas that elude simple form.

Voices From the Community

Participatingartistsbring personal histories and distinct aesthetic languages to the five themes. Their work reframes lived experience as source material for imagination and critique, inviting audiences to reconsider assumptions about agency, care, and creative labor. Throughout the run, artists and organizers will lead conversations, artist talks, and small workshops, deepening the connections between maker and public.
