INDIA---A trip to Tirupati reminds devotees of the long-winding queues and waiting endlessly to have a fleeting glance of Lord Venkateswara. “Even if the wait is endless, the darshan is worth the wait,” states artist Kappari Kishan whose one such visit to Tirumala has resulted in a series of works put up at the newly-inaugurated Pipal Tree gallery in Fatehmaidan. At the entrance is a wooden creation which evokes the spiritual feeling. Next are two stones depicting an outline of namam. “This can be used like a paper weight,” he says. Besides a collage work on paper, the canvases are filled with different images of the God with a spotlight on gold colour. [link]
