Artist Shampa portrays the Dharmakaya concept through physical forms
INDIA---During her recent show Confluence of Consciousness at Kumar Art Gallery, Shampa Sircar Das continues to work with Buddhist philosophical concepts and themes. The technique and treatment of her subject has become more layered, and thus the icon seems distanced from the direct gaze of the viewer; veiled as it is behind a patina of motifs presented in a patterned patchwork of solids and metallic colours. The works have a very strong figurative content, with the figure of the Buddha meditating or in a teaching posture, thus turning the wheel of True Law, Dharma and related iconographic motifs dominating her canvases.
