Coimbatore: Three dimensional sculptures of women sculptors are the highlight of the art expo ‘Sapthas’ at Kasthuri Sreenivasan Cultural Centre here. Women artists have come together to etch, sketch and paint their social concerns through scintillating works of art.
Trained under the guidance of her father, sculptor and painter M. Senapathi, S. Hemalatha expresses her dreams and aspirations of life by way of the three-dimensional sculptures. And to bring in a social touch, Hemalatha makes it a point to blend social themes and concepts from mythology to the 3D bronze sculptures.
And Rajny Krishnan’s sculptures are her distinctive artistic language to communicate the concerns of humanity. Through her art, she expresses togetherness, care and compassion as she considers them to be a source of healing for humankind.
The core approach of Manisha Raju’s work revolves around women, their power and unlimited existence in every sphere. Indian mythology is seen to have a great impact on Manisha’s works which portray the struggles of women.
Artist Giat’s works are semi-abstract with suggestions of female form. Architecture, musical instruments or combination of these are also visible in her work.
The complex yet apparent bond of a man and woman and their relationship has been expressed in the works of Thejo Menon. The colour palette is bright and palpable, mirroring the several tones of God’s own country and her native place, Kerala.
Razia Tony has her art worked around cosmic consciousness beyond space, time and material world. The yearning of a soul to attain spiritual perfection is expressed as lotus which has connotations of purity. And Asma Menon’s art revolves around the reality of a frantic creativity.
