This striking abstract painting by Amit Rajvanshi immediately commands attention through its bold use of geometric structure, controlled palette, and symbolic nuance. The composition is centered around a stylized figure, reduced into angular, interlocking forms that allude to the human body without adhering to naturalistic representation. The torso, painted in a luminous yellow-gold, radiates warmth and draws the viewer’s gaze to the heart of the painting. In contrast, the figure’s face is rendered in muted grey-purple, imparting a contemplative, introspective quality. By fragmenting the form into flat planes and elemental shapes, Rajvanshi evokes Cubist influences, while simultaneously drawing on folk aesthetics that imbue the painting with innocence and rhythmic simplicity. The result is a layered visual language that balances modernist sophistication with vernacular resonance.
The narrative dimension of the work unfolds through the introduction of symbolic motifs. A small white squirrel, perched delicately on a dark, geometric platform, disrupts the solemnity of the central figure. Its whimsical presence suggests playfulness, curiosity, and an intimate connection between human and natural worlds. Nearby, a bright red flower punctuates the composition, serving as a fragile emblem of vitality, growth, or renewal. These elements infuse the painting with allegorical depth, transforming a static arrangement of forms into a scene alive with metaphor and possibility.
The background, patterned with scattered triangles in muted blue, enhances the geometric theme. These repeated angular motifs create a rhythmic cadence across the canvas, animating the surface while maintaining cohesion with the foreground. This interplay between figure, fauna, and patterned ground generates a sense of harmony, even as it underscores the painting’s abstractionist impulse. The triangles act both as formal devices and as subtle symbolic references, reinforcing Rajvanshi’s strategy of layering meaning within structure.
Executed in acrylic, the painting reveals Rajvanshi’s technical precision: crisp delineation of forms, sharp contrasts of tone, and carefully balanced flatness with depth. The medium allows him to preserve clarity while exploring symbolic layering, giving the composition a graphic quality that resonates with contemporary sensibilities.
Ultimately, this work exemplifies Amit Rajvanshi’s ability to navigate between abstraction and figuration, symbolism and structure, modernist discipline and folk vitality. The result is a painting that is at once intellectually rigorous and emotionally engaging. Compact in scale yet conceptually expansive, it invites viewers into a dialogue on identity, tradition, and the intimate bonds between humanity, nature, and form.

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.
