The overall mood of the painting is that of melancholia and profused with the feeling of tension and despair. Kumar's works are abundant with visual metaphors, transcendental in expression yet grounded with artistic vocabulary. This work is abundant with hidden meanings, one can sense a form in the middle of the composition eerily gazing at the viewer. Kumar strategically places the warmer vermillion to make this piece more dynamic.
