Padmakar Kappagantula Part 3/7: Into the World of an Artist

Talk CXO Life

In this segment, we unravel the mind of an artist. Padmakar speaks on how painting helps to process one’s experiences and the world around. How art bridges the gap between pragmatism and the utopian world one lives within as an artist. A self-taught painter, Padmakar speaks about the brief but significant training he received some years ago from Kashinath Salve, retired dean of JJ School of Art and how it helped him learn some technical rules, which he is prone to disregard. While Padmakar has participated in art exhibitions and shows, including in Paris and UK, they have been largely group shows. So we bring great news when we announce that he is currently working on his first solo exhibition on theme “Framework & Phenomena “ which will be exhibited in Jehangir Art Gallery, Mumbai in October 2020.
