Woman portrayed as Hindu goddess by Jayasri Burman

INDIA---In one of Jayasri Burman’s colourful paintings, inspired by Indian folk elements, her concern for women is visible, with the central figure assuming the form of a Hindu goddess. On the other hand, artist Venkat Bothsa, known for his mix of sculpting and painting, lends an interesting touch to his sculpture of a human face by painting it with flowers in pink, green, orange and blue. Many such works are part of Arushi Art’s annual show, Harvest, which began on August 19. The 12th edition of the annual exhibition, which is titled “Our Own Path II”, showcases works of 70 artists from various parts of the country, featuring limited editions of their sculptures, paintings and videos.
