The Art

Dhirodatta Nayak—calm, dignified

and serious. His paintings create a

feeling as though a sadhak is quietly

chanting mantras in a low voice.

There is therefore no sense of noise

on his canvases, either in the colours

or in the forms. Among these forms,

however, one sometimes encounters

shapes that suggest a human

presence. This sensation not only

makes his art mysterious but also

opens it to multiple interpretations.

This is the dynamic element of his

work. The forms on the canvas

possess stability—paintings are,

after all, static objects—but if we

try to understand the relationships

among those forms, we can easily

sense the movement within them.
