MANJUNATH. H. LAKSHMAN (1980) M.V.A.

Manjunath’s works are inspired by the changes and its effects in the city. The city is witnessing a transformation which the people and the city itself are unaware of. Here the comparison which is brought through in the canvas is a very unique way of representation.

His presentations are a detailed composition of lines, texture and vibrant colors and a visual retreat. His concepts of a bird’s eye view of a city before and after and in transformations are by themselves a mirror to the society. His observation of decreasing greens and city becoming concrete jungles are portrayed in a very subtle way just to show the differences.
