कहं का ईट, कहं का रोड़ा
भानमु तने कुलबा जोड़ा
Kahin ki eent kahin ka rora
Bhanumati ne Kulba jora
This verse or a muhavara in khari boli accurately describes the way my painting evolves
and reaches its conclusion. I draw multiple inspirations from numerous sources, and
layer my work with intense meaning and depth. In this series, I have two portraits of the
resurrection of Jesus as well as Shiva which occur through the feminine forces. I have
created my second portrait of Buraq, a mythical animal which is intriguing to my
inspiration. Then another painting depicting the five elements of nature, and two more
paintings portray the coexistence of mythical with the real world we live in.
All the 6 works are done on specially created 24ct hand beaten gold leaf on 260gsm
Fabiano paper with pen, ink, gouache and acrylic colours. I use gold for its significance
in thought. It is the purest metal and it is the colour for Guru, the master, truth, and red
signifies fire, blood. Also the colour of fertility represents the constant flow of life.
The mysterious energies who they say, struck terror,
venerated thus for their dangerous fecundity, their terrible wrath.
Yet, were they not simply fulfilling their destinies?
Being protective?
Nurturing?
In their zeal, they came to be represented for their darker powers,
Venerated in temples as goddesses to be appeased, associated with gods either as their
spouses, or as their forms of energy,
female principles that have been ritualized, iconized, cherished, feared, and filtered…
And so I undertake a journey.
I continue to delve in my series ‘Golden Womb Series’. It still engulfs and inspires all my
art and existence. The protagonist of all my paintings is the feminine form. I am deeply
enthused by the ideas of regenerative feminine energy, spirituality, mythology, and the
contemporary world, all of which I have portrayed in this series. The protagonist of all
my paintings are in the form of a feminine body that rides a majestic Hawk. She also
embodies the earth, the moon, stars, the planets and constellations. Sometimes I place
myself in the paintings, as I draw inspiration from my personal life and merge it with the
fantastical, the mythical world. I depict my strong belief in the dual existence of the
mythical world within the real world in this series.
