Presenting some of Ghoshe's works : Life-Scape, WishFly, Harmony,

The Pop-Angools and The Mys-Tree.

Lifescape

Even in the cramped city corridors, under the gloomy sky and inside the claustrophobic social black holes....life goes on......and spreads all over.
As life can find out its own ways to escape - the stairs to heaven or the windows to the outer world.

Lifescape - acrylic on paper, Size: 40x50 cm

Wish-Fly

Wish-Fly is the 'wings of wishes' we all have, its an inbuilt mechanism, but we keep them folded, in a secret chest. Wish-Fly is our desire to fly, Wish-Fly is you, Wish-Fly is me and Wish-Fly is music...


Wish-Fly is a series of mix media work.

The Pop-angools

Inspired by Edward Lear’s nonsense rhyme ‘Jumblies’ this mix media series is named 'The Popangools'

where these ‘finger-like’ funny little characters play 'POP' music in different instruments and jive.

To pass time, sometime they also play golf.

This series is mix media work on paper (different sizes).

Harmony

Inspired by the Pete Seeger Song 'Little Boxes...' this mix media work on teak wood represents the enigma of life. 
The puzzles and chores we go through everyday......but somehow we solve them and finish  all of them by the evening....
The series is represents the concept of harmony in chaos. It showcases that there is always a harmony in sheer chaos and randomness of this universe.


Harmony - a mix media work on teak (wood).

The MysTree

The Tree of Life is a recurring theme across many mythologies the world over. Many cultures believe the cosmic tree to connect all forms of creation. This artwork series is re-imagination of the Tree of Life by Social Researcher and thinker Victor Ghoshe.
Ghoshe’s relentless search for the ‘Tree of Life’, finds a visual representation with his series ‘MysTree’.‘MysTree’ is a  series of paintings which embody silence, gravity and the aura of ‘the tree of life' which spreads peace throughout the universe and soothes every pain.This series is a mix media work in different sizes (40cm x 50cm, 30cm x 40cm etc).
