This striking abstract composition by K.M. Adimoolam invites viewers into a dynamic interplay of color, texture, and form. The painting’s palette is dominated by warm earth tones, burnt oranges, deep reds, soft browns, and subtle creams, that blend and contrast to evoke an atmospheric landscape at dusk or dawn. The brushstrokes are bold and gestural, with layered patches of color that create depth and rhythm across the canvas. Hints of architectural forms emerge subtly from the abstraction, suggesting structures nestled within a landscape, perhaps a distant town or village perched along rugged terrain. A small tower or dome, rendered in soft whites and reds, peeks through the clustered shapes, grounding the composition in a recognizable, yet elusive, reference point.
Adimoolam’s technique of blending abstraction with glimpses of reality creates a sense of movement and memory rather than literal depiction. The viewer is encouraged to interpret the forms and textures personally, whether as buildings, hills, or simply a play of light and shadow. The warmth of the color scheme evokes both comfort and nostalgia, while the fragmented forms suggest layers of experience, time, and emotion. This work exemplifies Adimoolam’s mastery of translating mood into form. His textured brushwork and careful balancing of color produce a composition that feels both spontaneous and deliberate, inviting contemplation and emotional connection. The painting stands as a luminous meditation on landscape, not as a fixed view, but as an impression shaped by light, atmosphere, and memory. Abstract expressionism with a poetic sensibility, this painting showcases Adimoolam’s unique ability to merge form and feeling in a harmonious, visually captivating composition.
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.
