Paintings speak out the power of colors for renowned artist Rajesh K Baderia whose solo art show titled ‘Alchemy of Colours’ will be inaugurated today at India Habitat Centre in the national Capital. The work depicts the usage of ancient symbols to create each of his masterpiece.
Deriving inspiration from nature, cosmos and Philosophy, Rajesh in his upcoming solo show has played with colours and their various hues. His paintings are abstract expressions of his experiences, encounters and beliefs. Most of his paintings have black in the background imparting an importance to his main body of work. The cropping black background does not restrict the endless and eternal expressions which become Rajesh’s signature. The colourful expression stirs a positive and meditative emotion, which justifies the title of Exhibition ‘Alchemy of Colours’.
“Everything around is the source of my inspiration. Be it nature around us or the vast cosmos we live in, I have taken every piece and applied my imagination together on to the canvas,” says the artist.
He says it is the energy which plays within us and all around, so energy becomes an important element of his painting in any form– be it dots, circles, streak of light etc. A look at his paintings bring forward the dynamics of creation, depicting movement of sperm kind of visuals or floating eggs.
