Speaking about the purpose of the initiative, Sharan Apparao, Founder and Director, Apparao Galleries shares, 'During the lockdown I realised we all needed a collective effort and that's how the idea of this platform was born. The idea behind TAP INDIA is to have a one stop platform to collaborate and present a collection that is varied. It will certainly be a treat for collectors and those looking to understand more about what to buy. The site will have prices and direct access to a gallery of one's choice. The information will also be available on TAP INDIA’S social media platforms in addition to each gallery's sites and social media handles.'
