Kaun? Who is this? Someone. No one. Anyone. You. What is this? Something. Nothing. Anything. Angst.
It's only Day 4, but finding inspiration was a bit elusive today. So I just started doodling. And it made me wonder who or what was it I had made? Once again, art means what you want it to mean. What does this mean to you?
Day 4 of my 30 day daily art mint from my series 'Free Expression'.
Will be exploring a new idea or thought through abstractions on digital canvas every day.
Day 4's exploration is titled 'Kaun (Who)?'.
ZOOM IN TO SEE ALL THE LITTLE STORIES AND DETAILS.
Punjabi/Gurmukhi & Hindi/Devanagri text on canvas read 'Kaun' which translates to: 'Who?'.
Free Expression is a series of abstract paintings (occasionally layered with poetry) titled Free Expression. The series aims to bring out the inner child in anyone interacting with the art during its creation or after. Embedded in each work are a few common elements from the artist's culture: The colours palette for each piece is inspired by the vibrant colours from the traditional handicraft of phulkari, which is a practice of hand woven tapestries worn by women from the state of Punjab in India. The emotions/thoughts expressed in each work are summed up in an inscription written in Gurmukhi (Punjabi) script and also in binary code, as a tribute to the digital nature of these works. And as a play on the idea that the algorithm/AI cannot read emotion or truly understand art (so to read the emotion underlying each piece in binary may help). And lastly, the 'Free Expression' motif, which shows expression locked up in a box... Are we truly free to express ourselves? Do we speak and create from an authentic place? Do we have room for our inner child to play? Does our society, our culture, our politics, our training and even our conscious mind allow us to express freely?
