GUWAHATI, March 25 – The yearning of the child for a clean and idyllic environment was clear and loud at the ongoing exhibition of painting, sculpture and handicrafts at the State Art Gallery here organised by Shilpa Sadhana Chitrakala Vidyalaya. The six-day exhibition, which will conclude on March 26, has many paintings by artists as young as 6 and so on showcasing rural background and life revolving around it.
These paintings depict the greenery of a village far away from the hustle and bustle of city life, the simple rustic folks who go about their work in a leisurely manner and the birds and animals that bond with human beings.
A visitor to the exhibition Nitali Rajkhowa, who is also a teacher and presently a resident of the capital city, said that it is common for most of the children to express the longing for a green environment. “My child is very happy when he visits his grandparents in Upper Assam. He enjoys running on the narrow tracks in the tea gardens. I think the desire to breathe in a clean and green environment is inherent in a child,” she said.
A teacher of the art school Doree Devi said that young students despite being born and brought up in the capital city express the longing for a rural surrounding in their paintings. “All the works of our students exhibited here reflect their originality of ideas. We did not give them any hint on the thematic front,” said Devi adding that the exhibition has been an exposure for the young artists. For the first time, the school has organized an exhibition in the State Art Gallery.
It needs to be mentioned here that apart from the young artists, the exhibition also has works of citizens from various background. Right from housewives to astrologer and lawyer, all the participants have one common interest–that is utilize their spare time in creative works.
