Cityscapes
Having been experimenting with space, line and form for the past 7 years, after several deliberations,I arrived at a series of paintings titled ‘Visual Sensibilities-The Metro’.This was based on my city’s latest development, the Metro Construction, which happened to be the subject for my first solo show in 2015.During this period,I watched a somewhat traditional city grow into a contemporary one with towering sky scrapers.The heavy metro construction has resulted in chaotic traffic and emotional unsettlement among the people.In this series,I have tried to bring out my impression of this busy advancing city,which I perceive as moving and stationary lines.The initial works are impressionistic based on the cluster of the city while the later works are based on lines.As the integration of lines with space create visual expressions,I have used that to attain the rhythm associated with space and time.
