Yantra 8 Painting

I work within a concept I invented, called MokshaShots. In eastern philosophy, ‘Moksha’ means salvation. A MokshaShot, by definition, is a taste of the Sublime. I had this idea that since we probably won’t get to full-fledged Moksha in this lifetime, we can get a glimpse of it. Everyone can make their own MokshaShot out of anything they find fulfilling – art, chocolate, sex, a vacation, a Ferrari or a tequila shot! The traditional Thangka or Mandala painting was used as an aid during meditation. In my work, this process is likened to how we create gods out of products, people and experiences, as objects of contemplation. This eventually leads to mind space being conquered by them. This work references digital imagery that is easily recognizable from its everyday use. The series also looks at man's spiritual quest and how spiritual practices have become trendy especially among the youth.
