Aradhana 58 (Sacred Resonance)

A cascade of burnished temple bells descends like a measured chant, their circular throats catching ochre light that suggests sound made visible. Against a heated vermilion ground—abraded with blues and dark scumbles—the metallic forms feel both ceremonial and weighty, anchoring the composition while the marigold garland threads through as a pulse of devotion. The tight cropping and diagonal stack compress space into intimacy, turning public ritual into a private, almost tactile encounter with reverence. In this tension between gleam and grit, the work speaks of faith not as spectacle, but as repetition, resonance, and the quiet gravity of touch.
