S. Harshavardhana's compositions bring to life heavily textured, yet plainly coloured abstracts, rooted in the essence of tribal art and symbols. He uses abstract geometric forms to convey stories, with inverted triangles rising within carefully bordered colour zones. The sharp edges of these shapes violently cut into each other, creating both seamless blends and obvious scars, giving the piece its distinctive character. The visual energy generated is powerful and evocative, telling a narrative of conflict, unity, and the primal beauty of geometry.
Harshavardhana's work delves into the concept of 'serenity', exploring it as both a word and an emotion. The artist seeks purity in his art, conveying this through his unique use of color and texture, similar to how a poet composes a verse. In his visual language, the triangle emerges as a central motif, almost like a "character" in the painting, symbolizing the search for peace and clarity.
