Sita

B Nagesh Goud stylized paintings traverse the figurative, semi-abstract and abstract forms. Ancient stories from mythology are an inherent part of the artist’s repertoire. Symbols from the famous epics are used to adorn the protagonists and illustrate the narratives. The graphic renderings within the face or body forms resonate with the art of traditional leather puppetry of Andhra Pradesh, blending the past with the present. Using defined curvaceous forms, strong colours and sharpened features, Nagesh Goud created visually stunning artworks where the intricate narrative is highlighted as much as the main figure. Monochromatic scales are alternated with vivid shades to create a sense of balance.
