This still-life by Surendran Nair, known for his later surrealist paintings drawing from Indian and Greek mythology and re-interpreted for modern times, is seemingly in the manner of an artistic study. The bottles and other objects kept on two stools are eye-catching not only for their placement but also for the pink-dominated colour palette that the artist uses. Paying attention to shapes, sizes, even how the lines configure in the art, there seems to be a strong Indian-ness conveyed through the work.
