"Waiting
in the darkness" expects the new sunrise
again even darkness covered in the world. This idea
is expressed by young artist Ramesh K.C.
His paintings are based on the bells hanging everywhere
to find out never ending peace. But at this moment
peace is far from our expectation. Ramesh is talented
artist. His colours are charming and attractive.
Hanging bell with small image of Lord Ganesha symbolizes
successful result towards peace. Similarly his entire
world has been falling down towards the big hole
of darkness where bells have been suffering towards
the path of soundless representing present unexpected
situation.

The
works of art of Ramesh KC, Binod Gupta,
Gaurav Shrestha, and Suman Shrestha reflect the varied
cultural & folk rituals of Nepal. The exquisite
expression through the medium of fine art is a tribute
to the youthful talent present in Nepal nurtured by
connoisseur such as Neera Joshi. On behalf of Embassy
of India, I wish the young artists & Neera Joshi
all success in their endeavors.

beyond the finite - "Bells are like the universal symbol
of awareness and peace. And peace is exactly what each of
us crave for in these troubled times," he opines and
adds, "my paintings are experimental in the sense that
I've tried to show bells as seen from very unorthodox angles."
In one of his bell works, the bell is viewed from the downside
up. "The inside of a bell is like a deep portal to see
the inner longings," he explains.

The
group "Infinty", comprising of four prominent
artists showcased their collective paintings at The Art
Shop from 6th to 19th August. This was the fourth time they've
come together since they started in 2002. The paintings
are mostly traditional Nepali patterns, and manifest ideas
like Female Liberation among others, through a cardboard
collage. Albeit young, all four show great innovation and
creative potential by exploring diverse subjects.

As
the scenery of the canvases change, the ringing tones of the
bells vibrate in Ramesh KC's works. His paintings
are rather dark and he shares that he likes the contrast that
comes through very clearly. He likes working with texture and
believes that the bells caught in stillness on canvas will tell
people that even symbols of peace have come to a meditative
standstill.
