A contemplative stylized figure takes center stage in this abstract expressionist work, rendered in a restrained palette dominated by muted blues and grays. The figure stands in profile, grounded firmly by bare feet on a textured surface that anchors the composition in subtle earth tones. Their posture conveys quiet introspection, while the elongated form and flowing garment add a sense of graceful movement. The garment itself is richly detailed, exhibiting a layered interplay of indigo, periwinkle, and other blue hues, punctuated by carefully placed repetitive triangles in yellow, gold, and white. These geometric accents lend a rhythmic quality to the otherwise soft color gradations, establishing visual harmony between pattern and form. This attire becomes a dynamic element, almost breathing life into the figure through its intricate design.
Held delicately in both hands is an object, suggested as a camera or a similar device, rendered with a stylized abstraction that complements the overall composition. Its ambiguous form invites contemplation, underscoring the painting’s evocative narrative possibilities. Hovering above the figure, a vibrant umbrella bursts forth in sharp contrast, its lively palette of yellow, red, green, and blue injecting a spirited energy into the otherwise muted scene. This juxtaposition of vibrant and subdued tones creates a compelling tension, drawing the viewer’s eye upward and adding layers of symbolic meaning. The background is a complex mosaic of irregular shapes and textures, combining mottled grays and blues with subtle gold highlights. This textured environment enhances the abstract expressionist character of the piece, enveloping the figure within a space that feels simultaneously grounded and ethereal. The artist’s deft manipulation of form and color emphasizes mood over realism, inviting an emotional and interpretative engagement.
A signature or artist’s mark discreetly placed in the lower right corner serves as a testament to the creator’s hand and vision. This work exemplifies a sophisticated balance between abstraction and figuration, utilizing shape, color, and pattern to explore themes of presence, observation, and quiet contemplation. It stands as a refined example of contemporary abstract expressionism, where narrative emerges through nuanced visual language and evocative symbolism.
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.
