Sarthak presents various moods of NANDI in his bull series
Sarthak, one of India's celebrated artists acclaimed for his contemporary paintings, is displaying his latest collection of Paintings, "Nandi (the Bull) Series" at Hotel Fortune Select, Gurgaon from Feb.20 ~ 26, 2009. The series also include his paintings on Rajasthan, Sundarban, Mythology, Tribals etc.
In "Nandi (the Bull) Series", his latest series of paintings, meticulously done over a period of 2 years, the artist has tried to capture the various forms of Nandi, the chariot of Lord Shiva, symbol of power). Various features of Nandi inspired me to work on the theme and I've tried to capture its various moods and forms, says the artist. The artist has a great love for Indian Mythology and its people. He finds his subjects during his frequent visits to various places in India, particularly rural and natural forest areas, and captures them on the canvas. In his vignettes, the power of linear lines – both stated and unstated, enhance the spiritual nature of the holy souls. His red, yellow, green and burnt sienna illustrate the pulsating energy and purity, perfectly in harmony with spirituality.
Sarthak's designs and paintings on various themes carry the insights of his artistic journey. He reveals his reflections in oil, water, charcoal, ink – each medium brilliantly indicating the contentment, exhilaration, tranquility and mystical musical notes, flowing through each of his canvas.
According to Sarthak, "As art has no inhibitions and is free from boundaries, the beginning of every canvas is a world yet untouched – that is what makes it the most powerfully emotive and proficient medium to convey his perceptions and experiences of life."
Sarthak has been intensely passionate about art since his early teens and has honed the fundamentals of fine art with immense perseverance, over several years. He has been painting on a variety of themes for more than 15 years. Through his commendable series of contemporary work on Rajasthan, Tribals, Mythology, Mother Teresa and Fishermen (ink & water, charcoal and oil) etc., Sarthak brings to us, the artistic interpretation of his most intimate feelings on the true essence of India, but each of his works also have a global message, a global appeal – they appeal to the human spirit of the world. Sarthak does not see himself as a creator but rather an interpreter of God's creations and endeavors to bring this insight to all.
His clientele spans the globe. Sarthak has several solo and group exhibitions to his credit and his works have drawn appreciation from noted Art critics, the Department of Culture – Governement of India, Sahitya Kala Parishad, Embassy of France etc. and have received extensive media coverage. His wife Sikha, a well known numerologist, is the impetus behind his creativity and also his favourite critic.
