Art in Corona Kaal

We all know what role air travel played in the spread of the Corona Pandemic globally. Initially when we took the pandemic for granted and ignored all warnings coming from WHO, the continued and unchecked air travel helped this virus to reach each and every corner of this globe.

This particular work is my visual interpretation of this particular occurrence in human history. Visual documentation of this pandemic and it's effect on humanity is what I want to accomplish with this particular series of works done during this global health threat.

Dance of Corona during Corona kaal... 

This work is created recently during this pandemic lockdown period. Part of my Art in Lockdown series. Don't want to explain or guide anyone regarding this work. You may like it or may frown at it for being gross. But this is my visual interpretation of this global pandemic. I just tried to capture the ruthless aggression of this virus. It's highly unpredictable and ever mutating for its survival and to spread fear among human race. Death and despair is spread across it's face and body. Performing a dance of the macabre and thus isolating each one of us into obliteration.

ART IN LOCKDOWN

My ongoing series of work on  Corona Pandemic and the Life between Lockdown and the Unlocked. Days of endless fear and pain and angst is what I tried to capture with this series on paper. We are feeling helpless in this situation. Left to fend for ourselves. We are living in a world full of uncertainties and fear. As if living among the dead. 

Skeletons are all around us. Death rules. And amidst all these darkness there is total lack of sympathy from the central government. No monetary help or support for our livelihoods. India and it's citizens are now facing a big question of survival.

Well friends as we all know that we should stay in complete isolation and indoors to fight with this nasty contagious virus, wreaking havoc globally. Right now on 6 April 2020 I am sharing my drawings that I created during this sad but extremely necessary nationwide lockdown. In this video you can see the pain and the dilemma faced by our migrant workers from different villages, while trying to return to their homes during this lockdown. They are without food and walked hundreds of kilometers to reach their villages. Some of them faced death too.

Staying home in my studio, I challenge myself to create random accounts of my isolated experiences with fear and loneliness and an uncertain future.

Showing the battle between Man Vs Corona. The way air travel helped in its spread all across the world. Locked down in our homes due to the corona pandemic gives an artist quite a challenge to keep calm and create artworks.
