Nature is truth. Probably absolute truth. Culture is a subjective truth. Culture is man made. It is anti nature. Nature has to be destroyed for culture to thrive. And when the side effects of culture becomes unbearable nature strikes back. It destroys culture. But a new culture flourishes again. Nature and culture are opposing forces. But at the same time both validate each other. Both give meaning to each other. Nature and culture co-exist. The balance of power keeps shifting, but they exist together to define each other.

Prabal, your paintings are superb. I see an increased depth [metaphorically] in them since I have started following. And I enjoyed your note , but being me, I would beg to differ that culture validates nature.
Great post, Prabal. Your thoughts on this subject are too deep for me to comment on today. I am on vacation and trying to put all deep thinking aside for a few days :)
Very thoughtful post and stunning paintings.
Co-existence II is more pleasing to my eye; I like the angles of the two walls and the light within the painting. That's just me though :)
Co-E I is beautifully done, I am in awe of the way you've painted the brickwork, very well done! xx
Prabal these are both simply incredible, not only are they beautiful (I LOVE the colors and fluidity in the washes, especially the top one) but they give the viewer much to ponder over. Which is one of the best kinds of art in my opinion. :)
What an interesting way of looking at it. And you are right! Lovely paintings Prabal. So detailed and yet not at all over worked!
