This special relationship that man shares with animals

Root cause This special relationship that man shares with animals and soil is what sustains us. I try to convey that in my art," says the 29-year-old. A graduate from the College of Fine Arts, Thrissur, Suneesh's creations have won many accolades over the years, including a Lalitha Kala Akademi award in 2018. His work has been featured in multiple destinations across the country and abroad, including Ras al Khaimah. Ways of the world Coming from a family of carpenters, Suneesh's craft of depicting complicated contexts through detailed lines is the highlight of his art. Having done his post-graduation from Santhinikethan in West Bengal, he also got familiar with the farming population that lives very close to the forest there. "I would spend a lot of time talking to them, sketching and learning their lives. Baul music influenced me around the time, and clusters of singers became a big part of the drawings I made," he adds. He likes to call his work a visual diary-one that comprises randomised elements which gradually shape up in to a whole frame. "I don't believe in making complicated art. My viewers may be city-dwellers, but I want them to see and appreciate farmers who make the grains they eat," he adds. Suneesh has managed to fit eco-systems into each piece that only reveal themselves when you observe closely-humans surrounded by trees, lakes, and even monkeys stealing the produce. He has created a woodcut of one such frame that took him almost a year and a half to finish. Other artworks are done with oil and charcoal on canvas. At Pachamama Art Café, Aluva.Till October 22.
