Know The Artist

My works are non-representational, doesn't aim at achieving the similarity with worldly appearances. Instead, it became ABSTRACT- the pure optical experience. The architectural patterns are simplified with pure arrangement of space, shape, colors, and texture with transparent and opaque layers of paint, drippings and accidental marks. To dissolve the solid structures into pure surface, on which colors, lines, and textures interact delightfully. The free flowing strokes transverse across the canvas throwing up myriad interpretations, each one viable and expressive. My works represents the inner world of emotions, the realm of  thought and the nature of spirit.
Each work evolves in an npredictable way, through the addition and removal of paint with the spontaneous reactions to accidental marks. I proposed that the most revealing art uses the personal to tell a universal tale: the space between the personal and universal is where the work breathes. The first mark on the blank white surface is a challenge, a provocative invitation. The first encounter is scary, once the first daub of paint applied,  I start with the forms and then subliminal urges takes over.Instead of broad lavish brushstrokes, the strength of repetitive motifs, the simplification of forms and the brilliant subversive play of colors with intricate network of lines take place. Moving in search of deeper reality of the self. Going beyond from all the practical interests, the consciousness become free from the bondage of ego. Detached and distanced in such a state of mind one comes to realize the universal essence of things not merely there outward appearances. Art is a spiritual journey of creation; it is the interplay of color and material infinity that drives the painting. Colour is seen in its joyous presence indemnifying the regular and formal thinking of seeing forms. I want my works to embrace childlike playfulness through colour.
Behind each painting lies six-seven paintings, hidden. I go on and on with transparent or
opaque layers until satisfied. the color/ form and the process is the subject itself. I have realized that universe is so vast and infinite, that I cannot reach, but at least inside me I have access. One seems to dwell deeper with each layer of color on the canvas only to encounter occasional space of underlying pattern of colors. The space I want to create is just not a dimension… it is very subtle experience of mind that is space for me, A story is interwoven with color and spatial interjection that transverses through the canvas as a geometric shapes or patterns or window.
With multidimensional perception to my artwork, I believe that a painting is matter of seeing the world and not imitating.
