Pankaj Kumar Singh Preview Party Celebrated at Shridharini Gallery : Eternal Rhythms
Hosted by Mohit Jain of Dhoomimal Art Centre
The art world came alive at the Shridharini Gallery with the preview of Pankaj Kumar’s latest exhibition, hosted by Mohit Jain, the visionary owner of Dhoomimal Art Centre. This compelling showcase invites viewers to immerse themselves in the eternal rhythms of nature through the evocative works of celebrated artist Pankaj.
Pankaj’s creations delve deeply into themes of creation, transformation, and renewal, portraying nature’s cycles through bold grids, rhythmic geometric patterns, and textured layers of materials such as charcoal dust, rice paper, and cloth fragments. His works reflect the ancient Vedic concept of Brahmand—the primal state of the universe—capturing the ceaseless ebb and flow of the natural world.
“Nature is always in motion,” shares Pankaj. “Even though it repeats itself, no two moments are ever truly the same. Painting allows me to connect with that energy and express it—it’s how I understand the world’s constant evolution.”
Born in rural India, Pankaj’s early experiences with nature deeply influenced his artistic journey. A graduate of Banaras Hindu University, his exhibitions across India have earned him widespread acclaim. His art speaks to those who find beauty in the subtle yet transformative cycles of life.
Mohit Jain reflected on his association with the artist: “My first encounter with Pankaj’s work was in 2007, but I rejected it outright as it seemed derivative. However, when he returned in 2009 with a fresh body of work, I was struck by its originality and power. His first solo exhibition in 2014 was a resounding success. Pankaj’s evolution as an artist has been remarkable, and it’s an honor to curate his second solo exhibition today.”
Prominent guests at the event included Manju Mansheet Rai, Suvir Saran, Shamain Singh, Ashok Vajpayee, and Niladri Paul. The gathering witnessed engaging conversations around Pankaj’s distinctive style, which fuses abstraction with profound philosophical insights.
Each canvas invites viewers into a meditative exploration of energy, form, and motion, transcending decorative appeal to offer a deeper reflection on life’s constant evolution. As guests marveled at Pankaj’s vibrant color palette and intricate details, the evening became a celebration of artistic renewal and the beauty of transformation.
