“In Indian and Western culture, as the industries are growing, we are forgetting the role that Nature plays. So, that’s why I selected the theme of nature. Trees are Very important part of Nature so I made Banyan tree in different colors which indicate that everything has its own importance in the world. Either it is nature or industries everyone is waiting for the chance to get the rid of one another,” says RINKU CHAUHAN.
Rinku Chauhan is a young artist who is passionate about his work and he has just completed his Masters from College Of Arts. This is the first time that his art piece is exhibited at International Level Exhibition. He has used Iron Rods, Waste Cloth and his optimistic creativity to create such a beautiful art piece.
