Anatomy of a City

Alok Uniyal’s works consist of a multihued figurative art, rich in colour,full of spirit. There is charm and intrigue in his work as he exposes romanticism with wit and sensuality, employing vibrant colours to unfold his story.

He uses layers of paint to acquire the even surface of the background in his work. The images are beautifully and meticulously painted, making them splendid and imaginative works of art.

In the present series he is inspired by the beautification of our city and its adoration by those who live in it. The couples are engaged in their lives, their lovemaking, even as the impression of the roads and maps are shown on their bodies. The bull here symbolises the city which is beautiful, powerful and shelters all.

He has therefore named the present series – ‘Anatomy of a City’.
