"Colors are the children of Light", says renowned painter and writer, Mr. Magunta Dayakar.
The only artist globally dealing in Lightscapes, the man is all about passion for perfection.
From a rural background, a self taught painter and self confessed book worm, his latest series on Lightscapes, capture the play of light and color at twilight.
Chatting about art and painting, he tells us, “The laws of colors, the laws of design when combined with an individual’s perception, emotional experience and expression, together make it a true piece of art.”
Vivid, colorful and striking, the canvases at first glance seem just that.
Move closer, and intricate details and textures catch your attention in a seemingly semi abstract piece of art.
When asked if what he does is Modern art, he beams and says that this is art first and does not bear a tag.
Explaining more on the subject, he says that today, most people claim modern art to be something that is clashing, adventurous and jarring unlike traditional realistic art done during the renaissance.
Citing the example of Pablo Picasso, a great master of the style, he tells us that though his early work strictly was realistic art, his later modern art, followed all the same rules except for the change in detailing.
The present series transport us to ponds and springs in the woods and valleys, and to that he says, “Nature is all about order in disorder, and the forces of this dynamic equilibrium are an endless source of inspiration!”
But, Dayakar, has by no means finished with this, “To me the rules of colours and light cannot be defied whatever the style, and that is why this set of Lightscapes is just a beginning, and there is plenty of scope for different themes in this!” he says with all the zeal of a youngster!
His collection is on sale at Art Gallery of Light & Color, Sri Nagar Colony.
