'Exodus to the village'

'Exodus to the village'

12/04/2020

Unexpected lock down due to Covid 19 created panic among migrant labors to return back to their far away villages.

Without enough food, money, shelter or water they walked a long way back home unattended by media or gossip channels. 

My attempt to place the exodus of migrant labors in a created landscape to evoke the harsh reality using few motifs. 

Corona Time

It's the time of Corona virus threat.

Threat to human existence on Earth. In particular those who are weak, poor, aged and lives in insecure conditions. The fear of the virus is added up on top of political fear. 

The title of the sculpture is 'Selfie of 2019' medium ' granite and wood.

Life after Flood

Titile : Life after Flood.
Acrylic on canvas. 56 cm / 36 cm

The recent flood in Kerala hit the normal life of many as well as mine.
Instead of representing flood hit visuals or tragedies I try to depict the life after flood as a visual poetry with Hope, Love, Magic of Nature and distractive actions of human.

                       Titile : 'Life cycle'. Medium : Black tea and water color on paper.

                                   Title:  'Prajapathi winks at his creations' Mix Medium on paper.

                      Every thing sprouted from One as I learned. But that one perhaps winks at those who sprouted out of 'It' seeing the present.

Temporary Sculpture with Natural Found Objects

This is a Temporary Sculptures with Found Natural Objects created by students of Govt. School at Prakritheeyam Charitable Society,

Trivandrum, Kerala, India. 2016.

The students were asked to collect natural objects from the surrounding where the workshop was held. With little instructions they created astonishing temporary sculptures.

'Selfy of Time' Polished Granite.

I live in the time of selfies, thus tried Selfy of Time in Granite.
