The Art Collection
R.K. SAINI
Beyond Form.
Within the Infinite.
A collection of 21 original works exploring form, consciousness, nature and the infinite.
The Collection
Almost every work in this collection begins with the same gesture: a dark circle, built up from repeated, combed strokes until it feels less painted than wound. The rings tighten, spiral and open, and what sits at their centre changes from sheet to sheet.
Sometimes it is a small burst of colour: a red disc, a turquoise pool, a violet iris. Sometimes it is a face, a figure, a tree against a moon. The circle becomes by turns an eye, a well, a planet, a shell, a mask.
The works are presented here as a sequence rather than a catalogue, moving from the cosmic to the intimate and ending, deliberately, on a single tree under a moon.

and Form
A body of work exploring the tension between energy and structure, the cosmic and the intimate: painted from the inside out.
The Artist

R.K. Saini is a painter working from Gurugram, India. R K Saini's practice is rooted in a lifelong inquiry into energy, form, and the spaces where the two meet or part ways. Working predominantly in acrylic and oil on canvas, Saini builds surfaces that are simultaneously gestural and considered: each work bearing the evidence of its own making.
