Exhibited Work:
Title: Lord Shiva
Size: 23 inches x 16 inches
Medium: Acrylic on Cardboard

This painting, rich in symbolic depth and spiritual energy, depicts Lord Shiva in a dynamic dance form, surrounded by divine musicians and celestial beings. The composition merges classical iconography with a modern, expressive style—using layered colors, rhythmic brushwork, and powerful contrasts to evoke the presence of divinity and movement. The white-bodied Shiva, centrally placed, becomes the focal point of the piece, while the surrounding figures and background form a vibrant, almost dreamlike tableau of cosmic celebration.

This artwork reflects Arunabha Mazumder’s deep engagement with Indian mythology and his unique ability to blend traditional themes with contemporary visual storytelling
