Santosh's mastery is evident in this composition, where a rich color palette, tinged with warmth, sets the tone for an exploration of mysticism. Contrary to his renowned cubist-geometrical style, Santosh presents fluid and rhythmic forms, surprising the viewer with a departure from his usual visual vocabulary. This work stands out not only for its visual innovation but also for transcending the traditional text and image binary. The incorporation of radiant lines and text with texture adds a layer of depth to the overall artistic narrative.
