Odisha has remained the heavenly abode for Art, Craft and
Architecture those are showcased abundantly in its temples and ubiquitous craft
items that emanates from different corners of Odisha. In recent times interior
decorations have eclipsed its presence in the contemporary fast paced life
styles of metro-sexual living beings. While SMART Interiors brings convenience,
utility and comfort inside our homes; the much needed embellishment of Art and
Installations add the soul to a home that bring a few tired bodies and
exhausted minds to live inside the confinements of four walls that is called
sweet home; as art adds the fourth dimension to an environment which most of
the time able to cool down the frayed nerves of a person at the fag end of a
busy day just like a soul full music instantly connects with the inner being at
a subconscious level. As we more often live from suitcase and hardly have time
to spend with nature which is rejuvenating and meditative; alternatively, we
can embellish our bed room walls with suitable art work on nature complete with
sunshine, flowing water, thick foliages and people with cheerful demeanor
starting their day; that would have a very soothing impact on the body and mind
as we leave our bed. Because, the mind fresh from sleep would capture the
positive vibrations of art work not just its colors and would create a feeling
of contentment inside and that would linger through out the day. Again, while
going for your morning ablution to the wash basin if eyes were treated with
Small Art Work on vibrant and very colorful flowers then again your mind would
be imbued with freshness, which flowers always stands for. Again, while sharing
a cup of steaming tea with your spouse in your dinning area if you had a look
on a Art Work depicting some ecstatic children at play; then, that would fill
your heart with love for your kids who would have already left for the school.
Further, while leaving for work, one glance on the art works with myriads of
colors in the walls of living room would certainly uncork the stream of
creativity in the start of a day full of appointments, tough negotiations and
hard decisions.
But, it is very important for an
individual to consult an expert while choosing art work for home or office; or
else you could also rely on your instinct by examining the impact of Art work
and its colors on your mind. If you carefully observe some Art Work would
definitely start a conversation or you would be able to relate and feel happy
spending time with it. The size of the Art Work would also matter while
selecting for the different empty walls of your home. It would be ideal to go
for a proportionate size of Art Work relative to the size of the wall you wish
to decorate with.
The capital city of Bhubaneswar
has seen a spurt of activity in the Art World as dime a dozen solo art
exhibitions are screened in regular interval; prominent and much talked about
art shows were conducted by Kumari Sonia titled Abyakta that dealt with unexpressed emotions, thoughts and images of
a hearing impaired girl with powerful brush strokes with equally provocative
colors that would bring excitement and joy at the same time; and the other
powerful art show belong to Sushmita Sahoo titled Puri: Era and Aura who has
taken enormous courage to depict important images and events of Puri the seat
of Jagatara Natha-Jagannath on water colors. Water color is the first love of
the lady artist Ms. Sahoo and she plans to continue with this series for a few
more years to cover rich repertoire of Puri and Jagannath culture. A lot of new
Art Galleries
have opened their doors for increasingly aesthetic conscious and upwardly
mobile denizens. Biju Patnaik
International Airport
has now earmarked a space for an Art Gallery
to show case the art works of young and enterprising artist of Odisha free of
cost and Ila Panda Centre of Art (IPCA) is soon going to be launched in the city
with its treasure of over 600 paintings collected over decades. However, Orissa
Modern Art Gallery
remains the oldest (uninterrupted display of art work for over thirteen
years) with round the year display of varied and diverse genres of Artists
and even Art works. Bhubaneswarites now wish to make a fashion statement about
their respective lifestyles through their private Art Collections.
Unfortunately, Artist community in the country are in deep fear to express
themselves fully, clearly and boldly because of compelling and competing
political environment prevalent in the country which at times unleashes
violence at the doors of an artist for any provocative or controversial piece
of Art Work. It is imperative to have creative freedom to produce World Class
Art Work that would be sinecure of the Global audience to preserve and protect
our rich heritage of art and our ancient civilization.
