Anand Panchal

Critically acclaimed contemporary Indian artist, Anand Panchal’s work is deeply influenced by rural culture and tradition. Born in a family of ‘pandits’, the temple care takers, the subjects of his artworks represent the essence of careless beauty and spiritual strength as well as the naivety and purity of their souls. They are depicted through abstract play and an amalgamation of strokes and textures.

The liveliness and ambience of his works are further accentuated by the usage of bright and effervescent colours – with vibrant strokes of ochre, reds and blues. Inspired by mythology and metaphor, Panchal’s works depict a world of fantasy and vastness that leaves the viewer charmed.
