- Exhibition explores human connection with nature.
- Works feature elongated forms merging with natural elements.
Veteran artist Asish Kumar Das has opened his solo exhibition, 'Ananta,' in Vadodara, showcasing a new collection of bronze sculptures. The exhibition, which runs until July 5, is inspired by the Sanskrit concept of Ananta, representing infinity and continuity. Das, a prominent figure in Vadodara's art scene for over three decades, views his sculptures as a voice that speaks to humanity's deep connection with the natural world.
The exhibition features pieces like 'Threads of Togetherness' and 'Silent Dominion,' illustrating shared purpose and the sovereignty of instinct. Many sculptures incorporate elongated human figures intertwined with motifs of trees and wings, symbolizing transformation and adaptation. Das's artistic language is significantly influenced by his childhood in West Bengal, where life was closely aligned with nature. He previously studied art in Kolkata and MS University, earning accolades such as the Elizabeth Greenshields Award.
