Nishant Dange

Nishant’s paintings are the epitome of minimalism, created with monochromatic tones of primary colours. Though simple, the combination of vibrant colours and dark charcoal make these portraits bold and dramatic. They carry the aesthetics of old-school photography. His finite pallet does not curb his infinite imagination and his impressive artistic talent. His subjects, the mysterious women are often accompanied by gorgeous motifs of butterflies and flowers, in contrasting colours, adding a hint of delight to the phenomenal artworks. A touch of these butterflies imparts a delicate smile on the subject’s face and enhances their beauty, similar to how the wing-flapping butterflies amplify the fragrance of a freshly blossomed flower. Viewers often think, that his paintings are primal, spiritual and mystical. The combination of butterflies and flowers with human figures makes these paintings primal. The close eyed subjects look deep in prayers thoughts, and meditation, making them look spiritual and mystical because the observer is denied the instant gratification arising from the comprehension of women’s mood had her eyes been open.
