In "Cosmic
Echoes," Nandan Purkayastha orchestrates a verdant flora across layered
dimensions to form an astral tableau. The juxtaposition of Kathakali dancers,
regal tigers, and Westernized faces circling a luminous blue goddess
encapsulates the artist's cultural pilgrimage. Purkayastha's fusion of
traditional and folk elements with modern aesthetics creates a rich tapestry
that addresses pressing social issues, offering a visual discourse on the
entwined essence of existence and the multifaceted complexness of life.
