"Inner Strength" is a body of work that sculptor Srinivasa Rao has been working on for the last three years.
As a sculptor, Srinivasa Rao has surpassed the technical barriers and entered the phase of connecting the subconscious self directly with the work, a rare quality given the limitations of the medium.
The Bulls or Demi-Animal forms are in highly energetic action, vigorous movement and gesture. One can find the treatment of varied color, texture and form in these sculptures.
His Super Betty, the urban stylish chick holding many mirrors in more than two hands is in her usual swing, in high spirit, also in some, she is in her ecstasy and longings inviting the onlooker to mull over the consciousness of the inner self beyond the
physicality.
The vehicle series of demi-forms with birds are unique in expression, treatment and aesthetics. This series speaks about the relationship of human with nature and the transformations.
The color scheme is lively and stands out in each work. The treatment of form is in a mix of abstraction and the touch of realism. One can observe a playful approach in the whole process of work.
In these three series of Sculptures in Bronze we can see a common thread of connection which reflects Srinivasa Rao’s introspective mood of finding the inner self, in a constant communication between his inner and outer being in relation with his surroundings and nature.
