This painting, titled “Cosmic Dance of Radha and Krishna,” draws inspiration from Hindu mythology, specifically the divine love story of Radha and Krishna. These iconic figures, revered for their eternal bond, are depicted dancing joyfully against a cosmic backdrop of stars and planets. The inclusion of lotus leaves beneath their feet, a symbol of purity and spiritual awakening in Hinduism, further roots the work in this rich cultural tradition. The celestial setting amplifies their divine nature, blending mythology with the vastness of the universe.
I hope viewers feel enchanted and awed, as if stepping into a realm where love and the cosmos intertwine. The vibrant colours, deep blues, purples, and golds and dynamic poses aim to evoke joy, wonder, and a sense of spiritual reflection. I want them to contemplate the sublime beauty of Radha and Krishna’s bond, perhaps inspiring thoughts about their own connections to the divine or the mysteries of existence.
The Oil colour was chosen for its ability to produce vivid colours and intricate, luminous details. The subject matter of Radha and Krishna offers timeless spiritual and cultural depth. The style fusion of traditional Indian art with modern surrealism bridges heritage with contemporary expression, inviting a fresh perspective on the sacred.
