The Mystical Mountains celebrates the simplistic use of colour aligning it with the minimalistic zen philosophy – simple yet very powerful. Vinod Sharma‘s colour palette ranges from black and white to natural shades and sometimes to even primary hues of reds and blues. His technique is unique to him which he has developed and perfected over four long decades.

Explaining his experience, Sharma remarks, ‘The legends say that Shiva had wisely chosen the Himalayas as his home amidst the snow-capped mountains away from the maddening world in the lap of nature, where his mind controlled the world. This is my tribute to that level of self-restraint and control over one’s senses which empowered Shiva to take over the entire universe. Silent, yet powerful. Deep within yet holding the physical world in His fist.

Talking about the exhibition and the artist, curator Manisha Gawade exclaimed, ‘Vinod Sharma’s understanding of the mountainous terrains is uncanny and intense. The presence of the artist’s meditative state melts into the hearts and minds of the onlooker.

A journalist, internationally acclaimed artist, curator and designer herself, Manisha Gawade has curated the exhibition and extends support via her gallery Ehsaas that she created along with her sister Dr. Alka Raghuvanshi bringing breakthroughs in the Indian art landscape.

The show receives strong anchorage from Ambika Vohra who has carved out a niche for herself in the world of art by encouraging young emerging talent from the Subcontinent, Europe and Middle East, giving them windows of opportunity.
