2019

About the Item

Manish Upadhyay - Durga-2 Acrylic on Canvas, 36 x 48 inches Upadhyay titles most of his paintings as “Innocent”. He is preoccupied in most of his works in bringing out the strength of the Weak. Whether it is a rural boy taking out the goats for a walk or the imagery of the woman as Durga. He symbolises them into Durga’s to show that every woman has the potential of a Durga. The rural kids depicted often in blue have an equal potential with the alphabets that they string along. All that is required is to give them an equal opportunity like the city bred youth. His artworks highlight one of the bitter realities of our society – “The Primary Education System” in rural India in need of a big reform. Manish debates on those glamorous pictures projected in the newspaper and media are many a times away from the core reality. The rural kids possess the same potential (when it comes to contributing in nation building) as the city kids have, provided they get an equal opportunities. The usage of Goat, symbolic representation of English Alphabet as a cord, Newspaper hanging on Bicycle, the Bull and Flute adds soul to his artworks.
