Says Nidhi Jain, Director, Gallery Ragini : “These art forms are abstractand use, a visual language of form, color and line to create a composition.Though the art forms have no reference to any figurative reality but they strikethe chord with an intellectual and effective artistic content that dependssolely on intrinsic form. The exhibition is a union of plurality of coloursjuxtaposed against skilful abstract art form.” As the title suggests, theexhibition celebrates the magic of colour and the spirit of life. In the exhibition,life’s myriad hues i.e. joy, sorrow, laughter, caprice and freedom are portrayedwith the use of colour and endless composition in abstract forms of art works.Each painting is remarkable with incredible play of light and shade, with abrilliant colour palette. These artists create an overwhelming effect with theuse of tones and colours.   For instance, Manisha’s works are a wonderfulorchestration of colour against texture which almost forces the viewer to feelspellbound and to follow the draggling of the brush stroke. The paintings takethe viewer beyond the boundaries of the canvas. On the other hand, the works by Bose include a lot of use of subduedand lavish colours with conceptual aspect, which have exalted influence of theIndian ceremonies, ritual performances, festivals and costumes.   With the mind being dazzled byhustle and bustle of Indian ceremonies, Gossain’s works on the other hand, are relaxing with layers of paint on each canvas tosoothe the eyes and, and unwind the soul. Abstraction in his words “is theapplication of the materials, colours, surface, form and lines.”   To get the glimpse of artist’sinner sense, Sunando’s works are thebest example as the canvas unfolds the subconscious composition of inner self,which is not meant to be created. Similarly ,Anand in his search for the realm of dreams has travelled inwards. Hisworks have become startlingly minimal, whispering about his dreams. The artistexplores the world through the veil, peeping something momentary which leaves animpact for ever.   The works by Nisha Sharma are woven around the elements of nature that arereplicated in a spontaneous experiment of colours and assorted textures thatcreate for a surprising visual delight.   Thus, with their own unique style and technique,these artists bring life, colour, texture and balance to their canvases toenthrall & intrigue us.
