Kirann Telkar
Moving Torso

- "My work is my feeling and a reflection of my experiences. Everything around me is helpful to convert my experience to my work. Atmosphere, the rhythm of sound, are elements important in my life, so is music and fashion an influence on my work. I express my work in my attitude and my attitude in my work" says Kiran Telkar while talking about what influences him.

Telkar is an artist who is very sensitive to the world around him. He says that it is the way we build our relationships with each other and the society at large which is the progress of mankind, and a way to reach a better understanding of life." I also believe that everywhere in the world the needs of man are the same, and it is only the immediate environment, which change, and alter the appearance of the situations." This forms the framework of his works. His works, whatever the medium, reflect that he likes to use subtle forms and colors to express his thoughts. The forms are interwoven to avoid and blend into one another and everything flows seamlessly, to create one harmonious picture.

Telkar works both in the 2 dimensional as well as the 3 dimensional mediums; even in his sculpture he experimented with a variety of material, transparent resin, wood, bamboo. In painting too he has worked in watercolors, oil pastels, and whatever his medium he tries to convey his concepts through them, says Telkar about the medium for his body of work executed in 1999 and 2000, " I have incorporated iron rod, in the stretcher, over which muslin (transparent cloth instead of canvas) has been stretched. On this surface I work in acrylic paint, thus creating three layers. In my works I like to maintain the quality of transparency, while simultaneously building up multiple layers. In this manner I express my feeling, about how I have lived my life and its relation with the society. These expressions are best translated by me with the same subtlety and intermingling of layers as experienced."

The artist lives and works in Mumbai. - "My work is my feeling and a reflection of my experiences. Everything around me is helpful to convert my experience to my work.
