Event Description : ART EXHIBITION "Aranyani - Goddess of the Forest" by Suresh Pushpangathan
In the upcoming solo show presented by Bangalore based Gallery Dravidam, Kerala born artist,Suresh Pushpangthan’s pictorial space comes alive‘Following Aranyani – Goddess of the Forest’. A series of paintings on nature by the talented artist,portrays the elusive spirit of the Goddess Aranyani who is described in the Rig Vedas as wandering fearlessly through remote jungle glades.
Each of the paintings in acrylic or oil on canvas, silk and on wooden boxes in this evocative series displays Pushpangathan’s trademark ability to capturea theme even as transparent layers of colour lay bare or merge with the texture or shades beneath in subdued and vibrant variations. The artist’s creativity and skill is visible through his deft brushstrokes in thick and thin paints capturingthe interplay of light, perspective, mystery and texture.
His canvases take the viewer to the edge of a pond or a grove to reflect on what lies deep within or beyond. Clearly apparent in his work is the influence of the Impressionists and Post Impressionists especially of Claude Monet. Not all of Suresh’s paintings confine themselves to the boundaries of strict realism. Some works adopt a middle path - perhaps somewhere between representation and abstraction.
About The Artist : The son of a traditional wood sculptor, Suresh Pushpangthan’s grew up watching his father at work and it was at his feet that the young boy was introduced to the fascinating world of art. His early childhood, spent wandering in the lush tropical foliage of Varkala in Kerala, had a lasting impact on his work as an artist and this is a memory that he constantly revisits in his evocative work. His inborn talent, a childhood spent in rural Kerala and later day training as an art student are all reflected in his sensitive work - deft brushstrokes in thick and thin paints, the interplay of light and the ability to convey perspective, mystery and texture is a reflection of Pushpangathan’s creativity and skill as an artist.

In his latest series of paintings, Pushapangathan has worked in acrylic or oils on canvas, silk and on wooden boxes. His pictorial space comes alive ‘Following Aranyani - Goddess of the Forest’.
