Words for my works
My birth place is small town and my native place is village but shifted
to metropolitan city like Baroda. Where I see everything in larger scale like
huge buildings, big flyovers, and these conflicts reflects in my works. My
larger than life size images represent the same. In fact I disappointed with
the development of cities, the way we live unnaturally, Cutting trees
destroying nature.
I prefer to work in many layers in the paintings. Before started to use
paints, I use large scale of screen printing in my works. Over the screen
print on canvas, I do spray with using compressor. After all these process, I
do paint on top of that. It like removing those parts, somewhere it is
completely erased whereas somewhere it became foggy as through that
layer, one can see background image too. I paint images over that. I use
images as symbols. For example in my works “Pakad” which may symbol
of pillar as well as effort of labours similarly “Time changes everything”, or
“Good Bad I don’t know”, I used the image of television inside that I used
the face of donkey or in work “clerk” represent the middle class men.
In fact put up so many small images together. Those images come
from my childhood memories of villages. I belong to carpenter family.
Vishwakarma is being considered the main God for the carpenters.
According to Hindu mythology, God Vishwakarma had created the world.
He crafted the Mahal of Vishnu and other deities. Even He crafted the
Lanka of Ravana too. We used to pray the tools while praying
Vishwakarma. Which one can relate through the images of tools which I
prefer to use in my works like “Pakad”, or “Mother tree”, many more. In fact
I never played with regular toys unlike other child but I used to play with the
tools which my grandfather and great grandfather used to practice while
making furniture. That is also one of the reasons for those tools become
dominant part in my work of art.
Basically my journey of life from my childhood until today and my
work of art blend with each other. I paint my life, my thoughts, and my
journey. Images which I used in my work generally comes from my past memories of my life for example chulha, where my mother used to cook
food in my childhood, bicycle which I used to go to school, or so on. For me
blank canvas is my diary I paint day to day images through I passes by,
weather images from my past memories or a present day. In my life I have
always seen ups and downs; you can see my life's journey in my work of
art. I include the nature in my work of art. I get a little disappointed to see
the conflict between environment and development. Actually what is
development; I keep on inquired and deal about certain questions through
the work of art towards the viewer. Although I open my work of art to
interact for viewer’s experience. Viewer can add their experience to my
work of art and take up to any direction to achieve aesthetic pleasure.
