Glorious Krishna
Anjum Khan
Description
Anjum Khan’s 'Glorious Krishna' masterfully blends traditional miniature art with a contemporary aesthetic, creating a piece that exudes divine harmony. At its heart lies the serene figure of Krishna, symbolizing eternal love and spiritual balance, around whom concentric golden dots radiate cosmic energy. Elephants and floral motifs encircling the central image represent prosperity, devotion, and the inherent rhythm of creation.
Why This Artwork Stands Out:
- The concentric design draws the eye inward, mirroring the meditative focus of devotion.
- The intricate elephants and floral vines add a sense of festivity and movement.
- Gold detailing shimmers softly, giving the work a sense of sacred illumination.
- The calm expression of Krishna at the centre anchors the painting in serenity.
Anjum Khan is an Indian artist celebrated for her vibrant reinterpretations of traditional Indian iconography. Her work often centres on divine figures, folk motifs, and circular compositions inspired by the rhythms of nature and devotion. Using acrylic and gold tones on canvas, she brings a contemporary sensibility to mythic imagery, where colour, ornament, and form coexist in perfect balance.
