Mangaluru, Jan 24: As part of MOSCHENI Art Fest–2026, St Aloysius Institutions organized a special workshop and seminar titled ‘MIRADA – Learning to See Differently’ recently at St Aloysius Gonzaga Hall.

The session was conducted by Fr R S Pradeep SJ, a Jesuit priest, artist, and contemporary sculptor. The programme aimed at encouraging students to broaden their visual perception and develop a deeper understanding of art beyond conventional boundaries.

During the workshop, Fr Pradeep SJ shared insights from his artistic journey and engaged participants through interactive discussions, reflections, and practical perspectives on seeing, observing, and interpreting art in everyday life.
