The five artists' diverse range of artistic responses to reality is seen in this exhibition. Amit Kumar’s paintings are inspired by nature and the present-day environmental crisis caused by humankind. Ganesh Dhareshwar's symbolic representation of human feelings seen in his works is the visual metaphor for his narratives. Laxman Prasad is using plumb lines metaphorically to depict the balance of life. Rishi Raj Tomar feels that the rights or wrongs happening around him need to be told through his paintings as a message to society. Sayam Bharat has been working on the memories from his past – the gratified pastoral life of his community.
