Ramu Das Indian, b. 1979
This fantastical work by Ramu Das depicts a dreamy world of ecology, with lotuses, insects, and butterflies and the glittering blue water. By revealing the magic in the mundane through a vibrant and luminous colour palette, the viewer becomes an integral part of that world. Inspired by his own life experiences, Ramu Das explores different human emotions and complex thought-patterns through symbolic and metaphoric representation. For him, the lotus flower represents purity and can be used to convey emotions.
