nectar
I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately,
I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life,
To put to rout all that was not life and not when I had come to die,
Discover that I had not lived.
- Henry David Thoreau

6. We are scientists. We try to study, understand and explain the nature around and within us. We try to
understand why and how life exists. We try to understand the structure of this cosmos and how it works.
Nurtured in the environment to think and study things critically, this is the language we have been trained
to talk.
But we also worry about what life is and appreciate the beauty, fragility and harmony of this cosmos of
which we are a mere speck of dust. At the same time, we try to live in this and be a part of this cosmos to
the maximum.
We try to express ourselves out thoroughly, to extract this Nectar and pour it on the blank canvas.
We are also artists!
-Amritansh Vats YVEZAE

7. Art is escapism from melancholy to ecstasy. Art and poetry is an expression which is immensely potent to
envision anything to everything. Rhetoric may be challenged and the need of society may lead to reform
it, while an art is just sublime, and the society instead ponders to decipher what he always could not
measure. The palate is the pursuit of happiness for an artist and his stroke embarks the genesis of a
masterpiece. Consciousness is the least understood phenomena and it plays with our lives, makes us who
we are. Art juxtaposes this deeply lying mystery, and contemplates through our emotions to express it
through colours on the canvas, creating a unique description of you.
- Amit Kumar Ghosh

8. He adopted, and then adapted to colours. At times, equations become futile to his
reasoning, the whole plethora of occurrences outside the realm of science becomes
indescribable, and that dilemma sprouted out the need of colours in his existence.
However, art is always subjective and doesn’t reconcile with the objective nature of
science but his confusion steers him to work on the coarse sheet. His words may be
inadequate to justify his perspective, but no doubt, his work does.
You can figure him out as developing his art intrinsically, experimenting and exploring
various with a brave heart. Having developed a certain level of sophistication, he took
to reading about art reforms and history, which only helped to deepen his
understanding of formal art, many of these “isms” which he then found already in his
works.
Amritansh Vats YVEZAE
a.vts@cbs.ac.in His interest lies beyond the objects perceivable by our eyes, in a sense to proliferate
more out of less. Association of specific colours and figures to some abstract notions
may be treated as part of his style.
His works range from playful spontaneity to subtlety, pouring out his inner self and
philosophies onto the canvas.
He founded the CBS Art Club and started the annual open art festival ORIS, with the
basic motive of expression via artform.
His works are in the personal collection of Prof. Deepak Mathur, Mumbai; Dr. Susan
Tase, Mumbai; Ms. Sunita Gaire, New Delhi; Ms Surya Harikrishnan, Manipal and Sir
Arnold Wolfendale, England.
The vivid use of subtle colours, monochrome and her indigenous artistic intuition
amplifies her stroke and lashes of brush. Spontaneity is reflected intricately in her
texture of art. In this collection, she has experimented chiefly with impasto and
palette knives to explore and develop in diverse styles, her reactions to internal
stimuli. Her soul is the sole master of her gallant performance on the canvas. The
vibrancy of her heart and brain which is in a continuous innuendo destines out over
the stark canvas, and turns it into a spell bounding maze.
Her works are in the personal collection of Prof. S. M. Chitre, Mumbai; Mr. Kishore
Menon, Mumbai and Sir Arnold Wolfendale, England.

9. Wayward couple is they, highly incompatible together yet complementary. They stand
on opposite strands but are mutually motivated and inspired. When it comes to art
Renu Redhu they synchronise unanimously with minimal level of constraints, and complementarily
& bring out itself harmoniously on the canvas. They say ‘opposites attract’ in love and
Amritansh Vats YVEZAE love over canvas via whips of brush renders out a perfect union. One can see the
tensions and the coalescence of ideas in the jugalbandi!!
He is a skylark sculptor who endows the art with an impulsive attitude. He is
flamboyant and frolic, with the way he articulates his art. Occasionally his painting
emerges out of the hunger to express realism and feelings on canvas. His works can
be out of mere pleasure or sheer need of a social message. With no particular style,
he experiments with colours but the sting in the tail is the message he wants you to
decipher out.
Dhruv Ringe
dhruv@cbs.ac.in
His works are basically figurative semi abstract, influenced by human life, mentality
and thoughts. He has to still cast his iron as he tends to follow a more traditional
approach towards learning art but as of now he mainly portraits faces of the fairer sex
with semi abstract objects embedded. He has some works on landscape or real
objects also in his quiver. His works can be dealt with understanding of human images
and blatant figures.
Plawan Das
plawandas@cbs.ac.in
His painting is in the personal collection of Prof. N. Vavliov, Russia.
He prefers to paint without any prior thought or pre-decided concept and thus avoids
getting influenced before putting any thoughts on canvas. The technique develops as
per flow and he tends to cease his work only when his complete thoughts are
portrayed on the canvas.
The result is always an abstract piece of art which is open for interpretation but he
always sees some figures coming out of it which are mere players of the drama within
Amit Seta his mind. Thus, he interprets it as a figurative portrait of a very abstract object – his
amitseta@cbs.ac.in
nature and free spirit.
He chose the brush for satisfaction and fun to view him in different spheres of life
through art. He treats his work as a note of remembrance and a source of great
pleasure.
