Portrait of the silent period
What if, when you can't utter any word against the super power?
What if, you find yourself in the dark cell as a result of crying out against autocracy ?
Corruption has reached the uppermost layer, upsetting social justice, democracy is a question de jour.
The most saddening part is the informal stance of masses, as if they lost their mind to the satanic force.
"War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength." - Orwell
2019 -20 is the darkest era India ever seen in the post independence period.
All hell has broken loose on Indian soil.
No country now for humane generosity, only fascism has engulfed the nation. Distressing silence resonates through our nation.
I tried to capture the trauma of this darkest chapter of Indian history. portrayed those extreme, possessed,
sold out and mystical people whom I experienced. Some unmasked themselves in this time of silence.
Cruelty - passion - emotional blackmail - hate mongering - poison ivy - killing spree - submission - straight jacket
and... curfew parades in the mind.

"Your work has caught my attention enormously, that ability to collect experiences, messages of mental
genocide where our peoples lost human consciousness to be with their minds in a frozen state just looking
and enduring those dark moments of life, your artistic work .
It is of a great quality it is extraordinary, few artists handle these questions of life and art since sometimes
the power mafias are about art !!!! I always hope to know about your work !!!"
