Pillars of Heritage

Blog 11 

The series of identical pillars holding the sacred ancient structure remembers the centuries of sufferings, grievances and deprivation. They have seen unfulfilled wishes, unkept promises, and eternal longings of millions of people over the ages who came to find salvation. They still stand strong keeping the heritage intact weathering the raindrops, insolation of human emotions. These walls breathe history, bestow heritage. If you are immersed in them, you are in the right frame of mind.

Splash of Water

Blog 10

The frequent blows of rafts disturb the tranquility of the water surface. The tremors created by the external force, causes the change of the status quo. The waves carry out the news of invasion by a foreign object. The universal laws of physics are no different from the fundamental laws that govern our lives. The sudden unexpected external impacts create tremors in our life. Like the water droplets bounced by the frequent blows of rafts follow the laws of gravitation and return to the status-quo, after the moments of unanticipated excitement the tranquility and peace again restores. It is all about riding those storms and difficult times and having preparations for the next ones. No one knows the next roadblock.

Ancient & Majestic: Terracotta

Blog 9

Terracotta is one of the most ancient art forms of sculpture found on the Earth existing from approximately 1950 BC. It has passed on from one civilization to another, from one millennium to another and throughout its journey it has been transformed and evolved into various forms and shapes.

This unglazed porous ceramic structure has really ceased the time even in this chaotic world. It has a lot of stories to offer. Are you patient enough to go through them?

Holy waters of Salvation

Humankind has always found their measures of finding comfort and discovering their innate wisdom and peace.

Whichever instrument you try to embark upon, the adversities and atrocities always create a barrier. But, the endless pursuit of salvation finds its predetermined path as possibilities turn into probabilities.

Relationships of Nature

 

Blog 7

Limestone caves are topographic features found in tropical and equatorial regions characterized by high frequency of rainfall. The forces of nature evolute the topographic features found on the Earth surface authenticating its authority and control. The drooping water through porous limestone has caused the accumulation of calcium salts for centuries designing the landform feature Stalactite. Centuries of landform evolution will continue until the Stalactites meet Stalagmite in order to form Helictites creating a match made in heaven. These developing relationships will one day find their happy endings as the structure will become more resolute and withstanding with the course of time owing to the natural forces.

Curious

 

Blog 6

The curious set of eyes is looking for freedom. The primordial urge of roaming free, jumping from one branch of the tree to another lies rampant. The external surroundings although don't allow them to be expressive. The traps and cages we have set up for them to glorify our predecessors is nothing but unfortunate. What guarantee there is that the more evolved species in the near future will not make a laughing stock out of us? I guess that would be proper retribution.
