    Commentary

  • “The images used by Ashok Kumar have been gathered randomly from films and media and distorted for his image making. The irrationality of the setting might seem accidental, but in reality it is all intentional. The artist combines real and imagined figures in one image by converting recognizable scenes into surreal spaces. Colours have been used symbolically, to denote a mood or theme. The colours are vibrant, with bright blues and greens dominating. The exterior world enters the scene through an open door, a recurring tree motif, or the iron roads sprouting from its trunk.”
