his vibrant abstract painting presents an arresting vision of human form and natural symbolism interwoven through bold color and fluid motion. Two stylized, nude figures stand at the heart of the composition, depicted not through strict anatomical realism, but with expressive abstraction. Their bodies, composed of intermingling hues of red, orange, yellow, and green, appear to melt and merge into one another, a painterly gesture that suggests emotional or spiritual unity.
The figures are dynamic, seemingly in motion, caught in a moment of expressive gesture or ritualistic stance. Their postures are mirrored and intertwined, lending the piece a symmetrical energy that anchors the composition. Atop each figure’s head rests a large, vividly rendered parrot, painted in a rainbow palette that reinforces the vibrant theme of the work. These birds, positioned to echo one another, act almost like guardians or extensions of the figures themselves, enhancing the piece’s dreamlike and symbolic qualities.
The background is a quiet counterpoint to the colorful intensity of the figures. Rendered in earthy, muted tones, it carries a subtle texture, created by what appear to be abstracted botanical or floral motifs. These plant-like shapes, softly woven into the space behind the figures, lend depth and an organic rhythm to the scene without distracting from the central subjects. The overall visual language of the painting leans into surrealism and symbolic abstraction, where human forms and elements of the natural world coexist in a shared, vibrant ecosystem. The fluid transitions of color across the canvas convey emotional vitality, passion, harmony, and perhaps transformation. Despite its abstract rendering, the painting evokes themes of connection: between the human and the animal, the body and spirit, the individual and the collective. The parrots, often symbols of communication and color in various cultures, may speak to ideas of expression, duality, or mirrored consciousness.
Executed with confident brushwork and an instinct for visual harmony, this piece stands as a powerful exploration of form and feeling. It invites viewers to interpret freely, yet draws them into its kinetic swirl of color, motion, and metaphor, celebrating the raw energy of life through abstraction.
Why Choose Us
Art has always, naturally, reflected the development and exploration of different thoughts and perceptions, and our current postmodern era is no different. It is interesting to see how art has evolved visually, yet the traditional methods of composing art remain a valid means of expression.
All it takes for an artist to rise above normalcy, is inspiration, which fuels his passion to paint beautiful creations throughout his life.
The valuable expression of art is always there with us, but now this expression is yet to take an interesting diversion with our art gallery, Gallery Silver Scapes, located in Hauz Khas Enclave. Art is no longer considered just decorative but has evolved and come forth as a major form of investment yielding high rates of returns for its buyers, making it an expression commonly used.
Mrs Mayor was walked into the art world by the legendary modernist Bimal Das Gupta, one of whose biggest collections remains with Gallery Silver Scapes. In the 1980s, as head and first curator of the Habiart Gallery founded by Mrs Rekha Modi — a childhood friend — Mrs Mayor worked closely with and curated shows for renowned artists such as A Ramachandran, GR Santosh, Rameshwar Broota, Sakti Burman, MK Bardhan, Dhiraj Chaudhury, M Sivanesan, and Arup Das among others.
Besides modern masters, she also worked with young contemporaries such as Sudip Roy, Paresh Maity, Subroto Kundu, Vinod Sharma, and many more. Artworks commissioned by her are now part of prestigious collections, such as those of the India Habitat Centre, Ranbaxy, Pepsi, Hotel Lalit, Bank of America, and many more private and public collections.
