The line in S. G. Vasudev’s art was liberated and freely moving, gesturing towards his mastery and the facility to recreate the world in a synoptic form or fragmented, with a sense of naive spontaneity and utmost simplicity. A nervous energy manifests it, holding the forms with tense tautness. He heightens the sense of drama through simple swirls and curls that effectively energise his compositions—an aspect that becomes a prominent characteristic of his Earthscape series, including this painting where he uses stubby brushstrokes for thick texturing.
