Musicians is a series of semi-abstract figurative paintings by artist Shakeel Momin; the artist uses watercolours on paper to create vibrant rhythmic overtures that at once portray serenity and joy. The figurative muse is that of Brahmin boys. The figures are engulfed with swirls of colour and have a mystical air about them.

Sculpting dreams
Renowned Delhi-based, sculptor, Neeraj Gupta, is visiting the city to showcase his works at the city8217;s popular gallery. Gupta8217;s inspiration comes from nature. He extols the rock patters of stones found near the water8217;s edge, heightens the textures and grain of wood in his work. Working with chisel and hammer, he uncovers figures, abstract forms and sometimes leaves the form as it is working with its natural charm.

Divine metaphor
Harish Kumar, a Faridabad based artist, is showcasing his paintings in an exhibition titled Meacute;lange, at Art Entrance. Harish Kumar8217;s paintings are really a mixture of richness in colours, thoughts, moods, sprit, divine love and tranquility. He uses images of Krishna, Lord Ganesha and Bhuddha in his painting as a metaphor for love, divinity and tranquility respectively. His paintings are not pure abstracts; they are executed in a stylistic figurative mode in which rhythmical line and texture plays major role.
