“Jan 15 is Army Day which is observed in recognition of Field Marshal K. M.

“This art exhibition has been named as 'Black Vibgyor', as my works created over a period of 1 year, depict people's deepest emotions. These are unrevealed by their appearances and the balance between every being in this beautiful nature,” explained Karan.
Talking about a new art form called PortIllustraitism which has been used in Karan's works, the artist said: “It is a form of art created to reveal a profound, conceptualised illustration of a portrait. It has a vast effect on modern art movements and the various upcoming trends of art.”
The deepest emotions of the beings are the subject of Karan Bajwa’s paintings. The artist sees himself as an observer and his detailed images document the construction of the emotions of life through very vernacular geometrical forms which are unknown to one who sees but known to one who feels the portrayal of different dimensions of one’s mind which modern life demands from us.
Working in charcoal and acrylic on canvas, he uses the seven tones of rainbow, which provide to his paintings a strong physical presence. That presence is enhanced by his skill at rendering figure forms and his sharp eye for manipulating proportion.
The resulting works transform standard notions of realism into uniquely expressive form. “I try to reach beyond the conscious mind,” he says. My paintings realize that goal, adds Karan who lives and works in Chandigarh.
The exhibition will have two paintings dedicated to Karan's father. “These two paintings are inspired by my dad. It is my humble tribute to him.”
