In the paintings of S. Nandagopal, we see strong sculpturesque impulses of the artist. While the lines are proof of his artistic strength, his subjects or motifs bear strong influences of his monumental sculptures. There’s a strong regional context or folk trope that informs the artistic journey of Nandagopal, also seen in this painting. His egalitarian impulse serves to unite the ordinary and the divine in his sculptures, making them stand out and be seen as timeless.
