Imphal, January 05 2014:
A solo art exhibition titled 'Pa & Pi' by Oinam Dilip, a prolific young artist from Manipur is all set to take the National capital by storm with a riot of colours, when it is unveiled.
The exhibition would be held at the Convention Centre Foyer of India Habitat Centre, Habitat World, Lodhi Road, Delhi from January 10 to 12 .
Born in Nambol town of Bishnupur district, Oinam Dilip grew up with a passion for conquering the world of art with his brushstrokes since young, winning numerous art competitions in the State as well as at the National level.
With a degree in fine arts from the prestigious College of Arts, New Delhi, Dilip has been based in New Delhi functioning from his home studio for the last 12 years.
Upto now he has done more than 20 successful group shows.
A prolific artist known for his larger than life solitary figures, mostly that of a girl, a woman or a couple, predominantly drawn from mythology, Dilip loves to play with a colour palette that primarily comprises earthy, bold red and coppery browns.
The multi-layered, complex and painstaking treatments in his works enhance the element of drama.
Dilip documents his narrations with pictorial supplements, and very firmly transfers his own conception of thinking underlying and submerged.
The figures in his compositions are often very idealistic in terms of their appearance and attire.
He bears a very conventional thinking process in terms of defying idealistic beauty.
He very strongly demands that a girl's defence is her best attack.
In other words, we can say that a girl's serene adoration is her best expression whereas the males are provided with subtle face and lean body.
Dilip believes that males are provided with a nature where their understanding about relations, responsibility and calmness is something which requires being on the priority.
So finding a common share of love and expression is quite common in his works.
The solo exhibition titled 'Pa & Pi' will bring out the best collective works from his entire transitions.
An artist feels that there are complexities in life and we all encounter it as we grow.
But Dilip never says that paintings are storytelling tools which he deliberately proves in some of his paintings.
He very kindly draws a line of sentiment and rattle innocence in his paintings where the hopeful eye of a kid strikes up.
