Pushkale’s art is intrinsically linked with the mythological, without making overt references to the same. A subdued colour palette lends a lingering calm to his works. However, on a closer examination, the motifs and symbols in his art come to light, giving it different meanings. Subtle brush strokes and shading create multi-layered meaning.

Pushkale’s solo shows include 'Serendipitous Encounters' at Aicon, Palo Alto, in 2009; ‘Unveiling’ at Bodhi Art, Mumbai, in 2007; and ‘Japa’ at Bodhi Art, New Delhi, in 2006. His work has also been featured as a part of several group exhibitions including 'Vicissitudes of the Constructed Image' at Tangerine Art Space, Bangalore; 'Think Small' at Art Alive Gallery, New Delhi; 'Entity' at MEC Art Gallery, New Delhi; 'Deep In Black' at Galerie Muller and Plate, Munich, all in 2009; 'Empty and Full' at Aakriti Art Gallery, Kolkata; and 'Point and Line to Plane VI' at Gallery Beyond, Mumbai, both in 2008. Pushkale was also a recipient of the S.H. Raza Foundation Award in 2003.

The artist lives and works in Delhi.
