VAARSO by Vipul Prajapati

" Vaarso "

At the recent timesfest 2020 @ Amdavad ni Gufa, Vipul Prajapati’s artwork titled VAARSO was on display. He is the recipient of National Award and the Pollock and Krasner Foundation Grant.

Vipul is a techno freak artist who loves exploring and working with varied materials and his inquisite nature reflects in his work. His love for graphite is evidently visible in his work. He understands the dynamics of the materials and accordingly brilliantly incorporates them in his work. Here Vipul has created a walled background representing real amdavad as the walled city. He has used the image of one of the oldest building, the Premabhai hall, as it associates with his stroke of brush with this place. Vipul has made a huge brush that ironically talks about development that is happening all around at the cost of our heritage.

His work is representational in nature at the same time urging us to be little more sensitive and sensible of what we are up to. Here VAARSO means heritage and heritage is not just what we live with but what lives within each one of us as well.

The memories that somewhere we all carry of places and people within us is also in a way heritage. For him the value of the city and its heritage- the real VAARSO is much more than only the art culture and architecture of a city.

This film is made considering the world cinema and is being sent at various National and International Film Festivals.

ART IS A JOURNEY

Ronak Sopariwala "Red means Freedom and Women want Red" , Acrylic on Canvas , 24"x 36 " "The Pyre" , Watercolour on Acid free paper, 18"x 24" Creativity is all about taking risk be it any form of art. It is an endless journey that does not have a destination. It is a continous urge within which keeps on going that enables an artist to keep on exploring and experimenting with forms, ideas ,materials and much more. It is a language of expressing ones own views through any form of art . This completely signifies the thought process of Ronak Sopariwala, a visual artist from Ahmedabad. Ronak strongly believes that art is created by an artist and also killed by an artist. Though this seems to be a contradicting statement but it surly emphasis on the process by which any artist works, at times facing conflicts between being creative or being professional or for that matter finding a way out in between, as this ultimately depends on an indiviadua
