A Timeless Memory by Akshata Prabhu in Mumbai

Oil on Canvas This work is essentially dedicated to my grandparents. They went through a lot of thick and thin throughout their 50 years of marriage. This visual could pose as one of the memories captured when they seem to be happy and peaceful. Old age comes at its own cost. This work was done from a different model during the exam and so I replaced my grandfather’s character with that of model’s. We were provided with some basic props for a hint. I attempted to apply my touch of imagination with a surreal figure of my grandmother working in the kitchen behind. The model’s posture invigorated a fresh timeless image of my grandparents together. And so, I tried to record this memory in the vividness of my emotions. And thus, the resulting colour scheme.
