acrylic on canvas
Dedicated to Khasakkinte Ithihaasam the seminal work by O.V.Vijayan.
This work is a total departure from my usual process of painting. The background was done (very consciously) by a method borrowed from Gerhard Richter in which numerous layers of paint was scraped across the canvas. The image of Ravi and the Snake was drawn as an inbetween layer. This is one rare instance in my practice that i went very conscious and literal. Like an illustration for the last scene of the novel.
