Sun Burnt I by Deepali

The SUNBURNT paintings takes on a metamorphic journey of experiencing a euphoric phase that eventually leaves behind a burn, extinguishes the soul and transitions into melancholy. I want to highlight the extremities of the two phases through this bright red and yellow palette which metamorphically revolves around a general theme that my work reflects - the disintegration of self and this particular piece focuses on the brief temporary blindness that accompanies when one stares at the sun for far too long.

This artwork was exhibited at Method Delhi in the group exhibition "Fresh Produce" (January 2025).
