Charcoal Arts April 2, 2009

Galerie Mirchandani Steinruecke Presents An amazing range of works using the most economical of means created by Aji V.N. With only black charcoal on colored paper, Aji crafts images that range from the figurative to the abstract, through landscapes and crowd scenes to portraits and seascapes. Medium-sized, his images strike a verisimilitude that hovers between photography and scientific notation. Astonishing in their details, the works challenge the eye to decipher that which the hand has created.To call these works simply 'drawings' does not account for the uncanny touch the artist imparts upon his medium. Entry: Free.
