Just like music can heal the soul, can paintings do the same? Yes, it can. The way artist Manoj Kachangal has composed the work definitely takes the viewer in his ‘Antar Yatra’. The shades of orange and yellow gives the viewer a positive energy and hope. The repetitive patches I would like to depict as one’s thoughts. In a fraction of seconds, we think of 100s of situations. Some are like red which may be of concern to us while some may be progressive and give hope. But, in the end, the ‘golden’ thoughts are the ones which we go ahead with, and that only happens when we talk to ourselves. No one can give us better advice than ourselves. In such works composition and textures play a very vital role.
