Together

Between 5-24 September, Centre d’Art hosted an exhibition by the local artist, P Saravanam, titled “Together”. In a world which seems to be getting speedier and more complicated day by day, Saravanam’s art returns us to the simple joys of everyday life and encounters in the villages of India. His bright colours celebrate the vitality of this life and the intertwining forms of people, animals and nature assert the essential ‘togetherness’ and harmony of all existence.

As the exhibition introduction put it, “Through his art Saravanam reminds us of the small joys that often go unnoticed, like companionship, playfulness, and the peace found in coexisting with nature.”

This is an art to be enjoyed like a breath of fresh air.
