Synopsis:
“All art probably starts with an idea or impulse. But it gains shape through certain accidents of growth, coming from the medium or workmanship. They come as a surprise to the artist himself and push his ideas forward or uncover new images. Here the medium becomes an active accomplice. I enjoy this process – this magic in the making …” These opening lines by eminent painter and sculptor K. G. Subramaniyan himself, sets the stage for the wide canvas of the artist that the film unfolds in a gradual but captivating manner. K. G. Subramaniyan, a man of multifaceted talents, created mesmerising art using a multitude of mediums and techniques. Techniques like reverse painting, cement casting, terracota and glass painting found a new lease of life with his mastery. The film is a detailed documentation of his work, approach and inspirations, a treasure-trove of knowledge in the voice of the master himself.
