The art of Ramesh Anand is like meeting with unarticulated. Those are out
of the grip of all language, shapes, and colors, tries to come out on the canvas with
changing faces. Giving the feel of architecture with geometric shapes on the
canvas, Ramesh Anand uses the power of transparency of colors to unveil the hidden
part of life.
Like his personality, his paintings are also calm and serious. But
somewhere beneath in this calm and seriousness is a deep restlessness that is
eager to come out. Just as a father gently hands his little daughter to light
from the darkness of life, Ramesh Anand brings unarticulated out of the layers
of colors. The possibility of a deeper dialogue rests in his pictures as there
is a voice in the silence.
He hears the beat of
life amidst fractal archaeological monuments and uninhabited landscapes. Like a
singer, his pictures give a new tone to this beat. As the form emerges from the
abstraction, one just needs to identify it or reach it. Like the flame of a
lamp in the dark, Ramesh opens the door to possibilities of vision and thought
in front of viewers.
