A painting at the Kochi Biennale, part of the 'Idam' exhibition, has sparked objections from Christian groups who claim it distorts the depiction of Christ's Last Supper and hurts religious sentiments. The Kerala Latin Catholic Association and the Syro-Malabar Church have demanded the artwork's removal and an apology, citing the image's deep significance. Biennale authorities have reportedly closed the exhibition venue for two days following the protests, with calls for official intervention.
