Circular Oneness

Prabhakar Barwe started experimenting with surrealism in the 1970s when he started placing simple objects from daily life in atypical compositions, such as in this enamel on canvas work, Circular Oneness. By doing so, he heightened the viewer’s awareness of the objects and also the relationship of those objects in relationship to human lives. In playing around with the scale of the objects in this composition with respect to each other, he accentuates the surrealist quality of the work as well.
