Solo Show- Passion and The Other
2007

When heart is full of passion, when there is a longing towards 'other' what takes place? 'The spiritual' which is full of life giving force, it is not that spiritual which is conceived as an impassionate phenomenon -the cry of a dead heart. Not discarding anything as Upanishads say ' Iti Iti' all this all this , accepting everything with veneration is what is advocated by tantras as the great premise for eventuality of 'the spiritual'. In my paintings passionate colors have come out from my passionate Being which longs for some truths not 'TRUTH'. Each painting have been executed with a heart which is restless, thirsty, hungry, and full of libidinal energy , while painting my heart was like an ocean in which waves of libido and bliss arose simultaneously. Majority of canvases have reds and yellows symbolic of passion and longing, all is hot, virile, and full of joy of life and its celebration. Each painting is a passionate discourse in which something has been hymned ; the 'immortality of mortal' .While painting I never thought about structure of painting for I do believe that painting is a sacred ceremony in which I dance passionately offering whatever is at my disposal that's why my paintings are not a crafty affair here possibility of painting is explored. Possibility of painting that is what is at stake which is what I experience. Fraze says 'life and knowledge are essentially one' for both commit itself to all its possibilities. I am painting to explore the possibility of my Being therefore there is no escape from the passionate longing towards the 'other' hence towards everything. My doings are celebrations which affirms my very 'isness' that I am (mortal-immortal).

My every deed is an affirmation of my Being for Being is a question which is at stake but I don't seek what it is? rather trying to unfold its possibilities which always denies escape and seclusion .Through writing I came to know that 'isness' of my being is in 'completeness' which comes through passionate longing for everything , everything which is innate to my heart.Painting for me is one language in which my 'Being' may be hymned knowing this that visual language has its own limitations , it can not reach there where a poet or philosopher reaches .Since visual language never brings the Great Time about which Nietzsche said 'Now is the time of the Great Noon,of the most formidable clarity' in ourselves when after having destroyed the truth that sheltered us we see ourselves expossed to a sun that burns us, a sun that is yet only the reflection of our destitution and coldness. The time of the great noon is the one that brings us the srongest light; the whole atmosphere is overheated; the day has turned to fire;for the man hungry to see, it is time when , looking , he risks becoming blinder than a blind man, a kind of seer who remembers the sun as a grey spot, a burden'.

I know that it is impossible to bring the Great Noon through visual language yet I want to fulfill my wish to explore my 'Being'in the language of colours; please do believe in my truthfull voyage surely you will enjoy something true to yourself for me and you are one.
