If you thought canvas is just meant to be put on walls, it's time to rethink. Let There Be Light is an art show where curator Jasmine Shah Varma thought of giving the traditional canvas a twist, literally! 15 artists have painted specially crafted canvas shades. Though canvas is a traditional medium, the shape of the lamp (a circular form) changes the dynamics of painting as opposed to a flat surface.u00a0
