'I' Painting

Ritesh Kumar is a fashion designer and artist based out of New Delhi, India. '' Couple of years back, I started painting Enso for a line of clothing. It made me realize that making Enso in a single, slow brush stroke is an oddly satisfying act of creation. It rekindled the desire to paint. I paint for that feeling. In the moment, I am painting curved lines and evolving circular shapes hinting towards celestial forms in monochrome. I work from all sides on horizontally placed canvas, wood and recycled materials; for stillness of color and drip techniques. I love the process of illuminating a clean imaginary composition with grain and splatter, inducing contemplative moments of cosmic consciousness and serene curiosity. Reflecting upon cyclic flow of things, I am interested in finding a minimal expressionist visual for centering of oneself with a mobius fluidity.''
