Under Extinction, Acrylic on Canvas, 2010, 102x127 cms
In this painting I have shown petty Indian
shops and their owners with distinctive characters. These small shops are under
the verge of extinction because of the mushrooming of big shopping malls that are monopolizing the
purchasing patterns. These small shops selling interesting things like bangles, kites, lottery
tickets, flowers, mirrors, trunks that are manufactured by local small scale industries. They all have individual identity in
terms their look.
