ART WORKS

My artwork mainly get its

inspiration from personal

experience and social issues has

its own impact in society.

Top: “JOURNEY”

Tells us about the struggle of man

for truth & enlightenment in life. For

which they have been corrupted &

enveloped by darkness.

Below-Left: “WHAT’S NEXT”

Tells us about the suppression of

freedom & liberty in people. That

are rampant in developing

countries. Where most of them is

helpless & weak and at the mercy

of those who are rich. They are

imprisoned by situation, deprived

by their rights & struggling to have

dignity.

Below-Right: “IT’S MINE”

Tells us about human greed &

corruption. Where the rich became

richer & poor become poorer.

“all that is necessary for evil to

succeed is for good men to do

nothing”
