A Journey Through the Microcosm

In this fragile state of impermanence, my painting series The Holy Anomaly comes alive. Created using acrylic on canvas in various sizes and exhibited in Chennai, Bangalore, and Delhi, these works explore the microcosm of life an intimate study of microorganisms, the unseen architects of nature’s endless cycle. Through careful observation, I capture the essence of fluidity, transformation, and organic decay. More than mere representation, this series reveals a vibrant, ever-changing world beneath the surface, where life is both fleeting and eternal.

If I do not exist, what is there to know? If I do exist, is there anything left worth knowing? Caught in this elaborate facade, stripped of all remaining bonds, I have severed every link yet they persist, omnipresent, haunting in their absence. Nothing lasts.

In the final reckoning, the aberration itself defines the formless. Duality baffles the human mind, weaving paradoxes that defy resolution. Art creates, therefore I exist. Or do I exist, and thus, art creates? The ephemeral link between creation and existence dissolves with time, blurring the boundaries between presence and absence.

Bloody Facade!

It is within this fragile state of impermanence that Shinod Akkaraparambil’s paintings come alive. His acrylic on canvas works delve into the microcosm of life an exploration of microorganisms, the unseen architects of nature’s perpetual cycle. Through his meticulous study of these minuscule entities, he captures the essence of fluidity, transformation, and organic decay. His art is not merely an observation of nature but a revelation peering into the intricate, pulsating world beneath the surface, where existence is both fleeting and eternal.

And so, we persist knowing that as long as we are here, our anomalies will bind us to the realization that everything, even the smallest form of life, is but an illusion.
