The POWER of CREATIVITY

OPENING WORDS

JAYASRI BURMAN

Stay Here, O Soul.... a poem for Bazaar India, November 2022

JAYASRI BURMAN

Stay Here, O Soul....

SUNANDA KHAJURIA

Cloud Journey, Acrylic on Canvas

"Clouds are always in motion-shifting shape as they carry on. Similarly, a person's thoughts, aspirations, and goals alter through the course of their life. This artwork is a depiction of migration, relocation, and new possibilities. It's inspired by my fascination with people as well as my own experiences of moving around.

My earliest memories of art take me back to my birthplace Jammu, and its rich Dogra culture. I have grown up visiting the Dogra Art Museum, which houses an exceptional collection of miniature paintings, sculptures, artefacts, costumes, and jewellery.

The Basohli miniature paintings, in particular, have inspired my creations.

Nature, human emotions, and relationships stimulate my creativity, inspiring me to become more introspective each a catalyst for ingenious endeavours. Art is the mirror of society, facilitating cultural exchange, education, and expression. In today's tumultuous world, it possesses the power to make you feel alive."

DUSHYANT PATEL

Story Recreated - III, Oil on Canvas

"This piece talks about a folktale of the fox and the crow, exhibiting a role reversal a shift in the power dynamics of the world order, symbolised through the power play between the characters.
