ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This mysterious horizontal composition evokes the feeling of an ancient artifact or a fragment of weathered fresco discovered in some long-forgotten place. The palette is rich with earthy tones - deep teals, rusty browns, and aged yellows that seem to have emerged through natural oxidation and decay rather than deliberate application. The surface tells a compelling story of time's passage, with areas that appear to have been worn away revealing multiple layers beneath, like geological strata or archaeological discoveries. The mottled texture creates an organic pattern that resembles lichen growing on stone or the complex patina that develops on ancient bronze. What's particularly fascinating is how the darker areas seem to recede into infinite depth while the lighter, more golden sections float forward, creating an unexpected sense of dimensional space within what might initially appear to be purely surface decoration. The natural patterning achieved through what appears to be a combination of chemical reactions and material degradation creates compositions that no brush could deliberately achieve. This piece speaks to the beauty of impermanence and the artistic merit of natural decay. It challenges our notions of intentionality in art-making, suggesting that time itself can be considered a collaborator in the creative process. The work exists in a compelling space between deliberate artistic intervention and natural transformation.

As an artist, Abhishek Kumar(b.1987), my work is a testament to the transformative power of vibrant colors, bold knife techniques, and a deep connection with the natural world. Through the interplay of oils and acrylics, I embark on a creative journey that delves into the intrinsic beauty of landscapes, capturing their essence in a dance of light and color. Inspired by the awe-inspiring wonders of nature, my artistic exploration centers around the majestic forms of mountains, the graceful elegance of trees, and the dynamic energy of waterfalls. Each series of works is a contemplative journey into the heart of these natural elements, seeking to understand and convey their profound beauty on canvas. My creative process is a meticulous study of the intricate textures and patterns woven by nature. Observing the play of light during different moments—whether it be the fleeting impressions of the sun or the transformative hues of a sunrise or sunset—I translate these nuanced experiences into enduring artistic expressions. The result is a collection of paintings that embody the emotions and sensations inspired by the ever-shifting weather and seasons. Central to my artistic vision is an unwavering focus on the source of light in each composition. Light, as a transformative force, shapes the atmosphere and mood of the artwork, creating a vivid interplay of shadows and highlights that breathe life into the scenes I depict. In addition to my paintings, I extend my exploration of form and texture to stoneware sculptures. With a bold application of thick, textured colors using a knife, I celebrate the vividness and richness of the landscapes that serve as my muse. Cityscapes, mountains, and the intriguing forms of trees become the primary subjects through which I express my unique visual language. My artistic journey is a continuous experiment with distance and depth, inviting viewers to embark on a visual voyage through layers of color and texture. I aspire to convey not only the external beauty of the landscapes I explore but also the internal landscapes of emotion and experience. Each piece serves as an invitation to step into a world where color, form, and texture converge, creating a vibrant tapestry that speaks to the profound connection between art and the natural world. As I delve into the creative process, my artworks become a fusion of observation and introspection, blurring the lines between reality and inner imagination.
