Rameshwar Singh
Rameshwar Singh was born in Rajasthan, and received his M.A. in drawing and painting from Udaipur University in 1982. He has a fascination for antiquity. The subject matter may be old-fashioned, but the treatment is novel. His work is very much keeping in tune with times. Through his paintings, he pays tribute to our cultural tradition that, he believes, can never be outdated. Blending the past with the present and striking a right balance in the process has helped him in establishing his identity.
About his work, fellow painter F. N. Souza has commented "His paintings are very compact; there's a lot in them: figures, forms, and mythological content. Very colourful too.
The forms are carefully constructed; there's craftsmanship in his work, and skill. Sort of magic mantras and omens appear mysteriously in Rameshwar's paintings.
His main source of inspiration is ancient scriptures, architecture and obviously his own state, Rajasthan, which is rich with art traditions. Old calligraphy, scripts and architecture also seize his mind. These frequently appear in his work. Artifacts like vessels, music instruments, games, toys and prints that speak so much of our rich tradition have a pulsating effect on him.
