Intriguing abstract art

Srikanth Dunde, a senior abstract artist in the city, displayed his abstract paintings at Infinity Passages Art Exhibition at ICONART Gallery recently. Srikanth had studied at JJ School of Arts, Mumbai and has been in this field for the last 20 years. He is completely dedicated to his profession.

“Art is a journey of imaginative process of colour, time, past and future. I had the passion for art since my childhood as I used to dream and observe things deeply around me. As I grew up my passion turned into my profession. Abstract arts are designed in the form of landscape, freehand and portrait designs. It takes one month, one week or an hour to complete the designs depending on the artist’s imagination. I give myself completely when am painting,” says Srikanth.

Abstract art is more real than nature according to the artist. The two types of work which an artist designs are institutive and structural and geometrical work. Institutive work is an imaginative journey of an artist and structural and geometrical work is a spiritual journey of artist. The basic elements of an art are square, circle and triangle. Depending on their mindset they paint formal and informal work.

Avani Rao, an artist, adds, “An abstract art has numerous meanings. Look at the work and let imaginations flow ,enjoy the creativity, colour , beauty, emotion, impact of form, impact of line and history of art to understand how exactly abstract art is designed by an artist. Srikanth usually designs arts in larger size, but this time he has designed 1ft x1ft paintings to enjoy the depth of infinity in the art.”
