Nature has a million answers. Even as I observe tree trunks, roots, branches, idling in some corner, to be burnt down as wood, it affords an excellent laboratory to the mind. It is exciting, sensuous and intoxicating. If one submits oneself to the form and the raw energy of the tree even when it can no longer bear fruit and leaves, one can see great poetry and lyricism in its intertwining branches and roots. The functional sculptures and paintings are a result of this experiment. The process takes over thereafter, but it is just an ode to nature's beauty.

About Manav Gupta

(born 29 December 1967) is a leading contemporary artist who is known for his mastery of light and color and for creating the tallest, first of its kind, five floor high, 5000 sq ft monumental mural "Tree of Life" where he introduced innovations of processes in conceptual,site specific, performance and collaborative art. Among contemporary artists today, he is perhaps one of the the best abstract painters from India who explores interesting interplay of light in Nature. He synthesizes his poetry, paintings, music and voice to create short films on environment consciousness. He has pioneered performance art in India as an idiom of the Indian "jugalbandi" — the collaborative dialogue on stage.

Nature's process of creation, as it exists in its timelessness,in its oneness and peace,has all the answers to man's needs of growth and progress and development. If the human endeavor first absorbs and then adopts these answers in its developmental process, the growth from cities to mega cities and path to progress would not create silent self digging graves of human extinction.
