Supremacy

Acrylic on canvas and plywood (CANVAS 60 X 84 INCH; FIGURE 60 X 60 X 18 INCH,)

Supremacy is one of my earlier interventions of the thought Land-Escape, this was produced during Cycle 1, Piramal Art Residency in Thane, Maharashtra. In this work, I tried to depict the human supremacy on nature using the Vitruvian Man as a metaphor to mankind while questioning its legacy. Background canvas is a representation of local landscape and a plywood cut-out of the Vitruvian Man painted with local architecture, displayed as the figure is coming out of the land and building its own territory.
