DhyanaSankalpam-an OpenStudio

Dhyanasankalpam is an Openstudio for Indian (Kerala) murals,and here we regard the pursuit of pure aesthetic experience,as Yoga. Its an exalted experience not just for the individual artist but for the whole community and even humanity, that which touches and consorts with every aspect of Indian life. We at Dhyanasankalpam create works that would last a millennium or two if not for posterity, like the murals of Ajanta.All that you have to ensure for us are walls that would last just as long.

Call of the Wall: Dhyanasankalpam at Thirunakkara Temple,West Gate,Kottayam

There is a quiet revolution of sorts going on in Kottayam in the field of arts..lead by the Lalitha Kala Academy..scores of mural artists from all over the country have congregated ina quiet manner to turn Kottayam into a 'City of Murals'..its fascinating to to see these 'art satyagrahi's in such large numbers at one single place..Coming close on the heels of the recently concluded controversial Kochi-Muzris Biennale at Ernakulam -Lalith Kala Academy's quiet but meticulous act of seeking revenge against the Biennale dons -not through war of words but through 'traditional and folk' art ..is not lost..
