The artist’s affinity towards this selected section of domestic animal reaches out to the viewer instantly. The artist portrays and relives his affection and relationship with these animals through his work, consistently. The memories and experiences shared with these animals during his childhood days have gradually become the primary core and content of his work. The artist in the present series of works often comments and explores social issues. The animal becomes a symbol and represents ‘nature’ in a few words, where the artist talks about the perils of pollution. The ever-expanding peripheries of the concrete buildings that endanger the flora and fauna are also highlighted and expressed in the works. The artist rejoices in recreating the various types of bulls in his work, the Duliah, Sukka, and Gujar all make their way into his work. Each with peculiar characteristics and features stands for the region of the country to which it belongs. In a way, these forms of myriad colours and aspects rejoice the very essence of diversity and oneness.
