Varanasi Acrylic Religious Painting

This grid of bold, cubist-inflected vignettes reads like a sequence of inner monologues—each panel a fractured “profile” where a face becomes architecture and emotion becomes geometry. Hard black contours corral fields of red, blue, green, and slate into tense collisions, as if thought is continually re-cut by circumstance; the jagged stair-step edges suggest ascent and rupture at once, a psyche navigating its own angles. Across the set, repetition with subtle variation creates a rhythmic procession—identity rehearsed, contradicted, and reassembled—so that the work’s true subject is not portraiture but the unstable choreography of perception. The flat, poster-like chroma denies natural light, replacing it with symbolic intensity: red as urgency, blue as reflection, green as reprieve, all held in a precarious equilibrium.
