This is the second series on the Aatha Tree that I present through the Daily Sketch Book Story. Through this sketchbook, I am trying to tell you the memories and dreams related to the aatha tree. As mentioned in the previous article, the fruit tree is disappearing from our surroundings and I want to say and interact with memoirs about them through each line. 1, Aatha tree and my pictures and views related to it. The Daily Sketch Book Story connects my surroundings to my life as an artist. I hope that through this series I will be able to draw the biological and emotional dimensions of that tree through this small line. It is a journey through dreams and realities related to the aatha tree. Sometimes it adds value to the viewer's views and thoughts. In another way, we are all people who have gone through such an experience and vision. So I think this topic is acceptable at the same time. I dedicate each of these ...
About Me
My name is Pushpakaran Kadappath , born in a family of ritualistic practices
in Thrissur, Kerala , India. Dark colours and Oracles, abundance of folklore
and mythological literature of surrealistic and magical realist consciousness
when combined with my reading of Greek and Indian epics have influenced and
reflected in my profession as an artist. My home town Velur had
the secret carpentry techniques making and exhibiting a huge wooden
horse carried by 60 men singing war songs at our Manimalarkavu vela festival. Interest in Kalamezhuthu, Kolam, Theyyam, and
other ritualistic arts mostly with primary colours and the guidance of sculptor
Velur Johnson, inspired me to pass a two year foundation course in painting in
2001 (Dharu shilpa, sculpting, mural painting). I passed Bachelor of Fine Arts
(BFA) with first Rank in painting in 2005 from Sree Sankaracharya University of
Sanskrit , Kalady. My MFA in painting is from Govt : RLV College of Music and Fine
Arts , Thripunithura (Mahatma Gandhi University, Kottayam) . Then I moved to
Shanthiniketan (Viswa Bharathy University, West Bengal) and researched on mural
works under Binod Bihari Mukerji, Ramkinker and K.G Subramanyan. Paul Delevaux
and William Kentridge have influenced me in my linear detailing with charcoal
and Indian ink (invented before 2000 BC). I was awarded with Pollock-Krasner
Foundation Grant , New York ,U.S.A , 2014 . Currently based in Thrissur . l visualize my dreams as well as myths and
history in my works. My dreams create a magical world of hallucinations and I
interweave them in my drawings .
About This Website
I am presenting an
idea called Daily Sketch Book story. I try to present my
vision of how my own life experiences as an artist and my surroundings
influence art, and how to make its intense and emotional backgrounds a reality
through short lines. What is often kept in the mind is so scattered in
the depths of the mind that it cannot be expressed outside. Nature.
Survival and mysterious phenomena as a scientific curiosity that I try to
express and try to know through art. In this fast life there is a state
of being away from us or being forgotten. Memories of them come to us
with depression, either lost or in the last stages of existence. By the time we
realize their significance, they may have disappeared from us like the trick of
a magician. The idea I put forward through the series Daily sketch book story is a note of memories and recuperate . These sketch books are also a record of life as an artist .
