Thirty-something Indian artist Gurmeet Marwah has an interesting imagination. His paintings are monochrome charcoal sketches, acrylic oil, watercolor, lithographs, etching and linocuts, Marwah's favorite is woodcut--a print made from a design cut in a block of wood, formerly widely used for illustrations in books. Gurmeet's work is based on narratives at two levels-the personal and the societal. The images are sarcastic expressions that have their origin in deeply felt emotions. In a way, the satire inherent in his work serves to resolve inner conflicts. Desire is another fundamental aspect of his work that has its many forms such as the explosion and the entrapment of the heart. He uses animals and objects like crucibles as symbols of emotive content.
Mahatma Gandhi know for his non violence moment is the messenger for peace and love among human beings. The bright acrylic heart drawn on his clothes signifies humanity.
'It is my rendition of hope of movement from our mundane directionless lives to a hopeful future on the path of a virtuous leader', says Gurmeet.
