Manu Parekh, who is best known for his Banaras series of works, has experimented with genres and styles throughout his career. The cumulative impact of his ten-year-stay in Calcutta and his tryst with the holy city of Varanasi around the time neo-Tantra art movement was sweeping across the country, helped him process these diverse influences through works that became a blend of colourful abstraction, sexual imagery and figuration. This work, Composition, brings all these diverse influences together through a surfeit of sexual organs that seem to be placed on the canvas in a sense of repeating a thought over and over again.
