“Life of Fisherman” is about a fisherman and his wife resting together after a long day’s toil, sharing a quiet smoke under the dark night. Their weary yet intimate faces, drawn in rustic grunge strokes and textured forms, evoke resilience, companionship, and the silent poetry of labor entwined with love.
Painting inspired by a 10th century Chola bronze belonging to Svetaranyeswara temple. Sculpture gifted to the temple by Raja Raja Chola. Current location of original bronze – Tanjore Palace Museum. A humble attempt to bring awareness to our Heritage.
