“Painting is like breathing for an artist.”
The abstract painting by artist Rahul Nivrutti Dangat is a pleasing visual to the soul. Swirling lines, twisted shapes, dwindling light streams, vibrant hues, an array of colourful patterns, and the path of flowing water, everything can be seen in his paintings.
Since his student life he is keener in experimenting with techniques. He tried different options playing with opaque and transparent accidental effects.
He has evolved with a colour palette from greyish to warmish colour feel. There is a noticeable use of the crescent form in his work which may give variables to viewers as a moon, mask, semi-circle, modern architecture etc. He is not interested in telling any stories; he is neither giving any message to society. He is confined to himself where he enjoys exploring textures and accidental effects.
Excerpts from an interview:
Since when have you started your artwork and what made you interested in this field?
Since childhood, I was good in drawing and painting. I took part in many competitions when young and usually got prizes. My parents were very happy about this and they wanted me to become an art teacher. I belong to a farmer’s family from Junnar Takula in Pune District. As my inclination was towards art, I too decided to take up arts as a career. I did my G.D. Art from Bharti Kala Mahavidyalaya, Pune, and BFA from M.M.K. College of Visual art, Gulbarga, Karnataka. After finishing my education I came to Mumbai and started painting as a freelance artist.
What kind of art do you mainly indulge in and why?
