To contemplate upon the world from a celestial standpoint remains the prerogative of the artist who creates a sensation that at once seems familiar and yet strange and unsettling in its configuration. Pratul juxtaposes motifs obliquely hinting at depleting resources and fragmentation of natural beauty. The precisely rendered beauty of Pratul’s paintings is in a sense deceptive, as the artist uses the tool of pictorial attraction to enrapture the viewer’s attention, demanding deeper engagement with his concerns through the visual encounter. Traversing his own memories through the canvas one encounters all forms of disruptions and rhythms – a language not unlike that of the universe and of existence itself.
“Latitude 28 becomes the nurturing ground for many an artist like Dash, who has a powerful vision for his practice but forays it through his coded conceptualization and sensitive aesthetic. Dash completely subverts his usual style to bring forth this profound conglomerate of artworks and boldly takes time off to challenge his own artistic exploration. I am proud that Latitude 28 has supported Dash’s transformation from a budding artist making his impact to a more confident artist who aligns himself with recalibration and experimentation,” says Bhavna Kakar, Founder, LATITUDE 28.
