Chuna Ram Hemram - Artwork 67
A textured, allegorical scene in which figures, animals and symbolic elements co-exist within a layered, distressed surface. Rich, nocturnal hues—purples, deep reds and turquoise—define two central human profiles and a blue animal form, their outlines emphasized with metallic or impasto highlights that suggest collage or relief work. The composition reads like a fable: a captive or framed figure opposite an enigmatic character holding a mask-like animal head, connected by a tense, almost ritual interaction.
The work’s scratched, weathered ground and stitched visual motifs evoke memory, power dynamics, and the craft of making itself.
