Arrested for Complacency - 1/6 - Tushar Sahay

Dimensions: 10 x 14 ″Dimensions:Framed: 13.2 x 17 ″Medium: Mezzotint

Tushar pinpoints the shackles of rat trap, which city life embodies, a trap wherein all get trapped and become far removed from the calm, tranquility of the countryside , which is in reality the ultimate human wish. Sketching daily commuters while travelling in metro train four hours a day he observed heavy bags pulling down their shoulders, swinging while holding handles, miffed and distraught faces became inspiration of his ongoing project “Mental Turbulence” which also spans his transition from a remote village to what he curtly calls “Urban Jungle”.
He is practicing mezzotint from 2017 and like to metaphorically project glimpses of the fuss of everyday life.The artist constantly meanders through the humdrum of life covertly urging the onlookers to step back and introspect. Dark , rich tones of mezzotint in his work cast a spell and force one to retreat to the serene quietude which the soul desires.
