A three-day exhibition showcasing a variety of artistic expressions inspired by nature opened at Foothills Club, IAS-PCS Society, Sector 1, New Chandigarh, on Friday.
Titled “Nature Palette”, the exhibition will remain open for all from 11 am to 7 pm on Saturday and Sunday.
Former director of North Zone Cultural Centre (NZCC), DS Saroya, 65, exhibited his photos from Leh and Ladakh and described them as a “mystical landscape”.
Next to Saroya’s exhibit were the photos captured by Rekha Chandra, titled “A Symphony of Interactions”, further mentioning, “We don’t own the Earth: We belong to it, sharing this sacred space with wildlife”.
Chandra, a retired teacher, had captured elephants crossing Nepal’s Tarai region to Jim Corbett. Another photo depicted a tigress drinking water after a hunt.
Another artist, retired IRS officer Harmeet Singh,59, expressed his thoughts in the form of abstract art, with paintings highlighting themes of Shiva linga and Greek mythology. Singh desribed himself as a self-taught artist, not belonging to any school, but inspired by Dutch painter Vincent Van Gogh.
