Banaras In Summer (Banaras Rituals) Serigraphs Cityscape Painting

Against a saffron, twilight sky, the scene unfurls as a pageant of silhouettes—temple domes, trees, and clustered figures pressed into the foreground like cut-paper memories—where the weight of shadow becomes a language of devotion and labor. Vivid oranges and patterned reds flare within the dark outlines, suggesting inner fire and ritual ornamentation, as if the everyday bodies carry fragments of the sacred architecture they move among. The compressed space and overlapping forms create a gentle claustrophobia, evoking a community bound together by procession and place, where individual identities dissolve into a shared, ancestral rhythm. Light here is not merely illumination but a spiritual atmosphere, turning the gathering into a meditation on continuity, tradition, and the quiet endurance of collective life.
