Mahesh Annapure's paintings are in an innovative style, encompassing a variety of themes such as conceptual art, landscapes, still life, and traditional Indian painting. The series "Faces" and "Progressive Women" particularly focus on women's issues, prompting reflection on these matters. A recurrent theme in Mahesh's work is the exploration of a woman's identity within society and progressive ideologies.
His "Faces" series captures the essence of women searching for their unique place, reflecting themes of identity, empowerment, and self-discovery. Bold lines and subtle expressions invite viewers to contemplate gender dynamics and societal expectations. In the "Feminism" series, Mahesh conceptually delves into the lives and challenges of progressive women, merging symbolism and abstraction to express the aspirations and resistance against traditional constraints.
Each painting in this series narrates the evolving roles and struggles of women in contemporary society, reflecting Mahesh's sensitivity towards socio-cultural issues.
At the heart of Mahesh's artistic identity is his unique patchwork technique, skillfully applied across various themes. This technique not only adds texture and depth to his artworks but also serves as a metaphor for the complexities of human experiences and perspectives. Whether abstract landscapes or poignant still life studies, the use of patchwork breathes life into each canvas, inviting viewers to engage with multiple layers of meaning.
The
exhibition will run from July 09 to 15 Sept., providing a rare chance to
experience his creative vision.
