The artist will be showcasing nine of his works alongside 325 artists from 83 countries
Moving away from the overwhelming shades of whites, artist Kattakuri Ravi’s new line of works reflects the use analogous colours to portray powerful feminine energy in vivid hues and forms. Known for his unique style of bright art with Madhubani art-influenced feminine faces, Ravi will be showcasing nine of his works at Spain’s annual Lacuna Festivals, which celebrate International Contemporary Art. The month-long online art exhibition, beginning on July 2, will feature Ravi’s work alongside 325 artists from 83 countries. “My new works reflect the beauty of the woman encompassing the body and spirit, along with perceived attributes of goodness, tenderness, devotion and patience,” says the Visakhapatnam-based artist, who sent the works in the form of images for the festival. This is the first time that Ravi has experimented with application of colours, infusing energy and bold contrast with a sense of harmony and balance. Ravi’s past works had a predominant effect of white. His nine works that will be displayed at the festival in Spain are done in the medium of acrylic on canvas and on the theme of ‘women and power’.More Related News
