The exhibition of paintings by Sole Yli Mayry, renowned artist from Finland, expresses her love for vibrant colours and her passion for what she does C THE very first thing you notice about artist Sole Yli-Mayry is the aura around her. It''s not just the attire or accessories that reflect her love for the colour palette; even her paintings bear the imprint of a passionate artist. On her maiden visit to the city to exhibit her collection of works, Mayry is full of admiration for Indians who she found to be keen enthusiasts of art. As the walls of Lakshana Art Gallery stood adorned with the mystical works of Mayry, one cannot miss the spontaneous structure, strong temperament and the vitality which distinguishes her paintings from those of others. The central theme of her paintings is human beings as they connect us with real life, its figures, conditions and objects. With bright backgrounds of red, yellow, blue, orange and so on, her works have a lyrical rhythm in themselves. On a closer look at the figures, you may even feel a subliminal applcation over the base. An artist for the past 30 years, she has travelled across the globe taking her works to new levels. However, she says her biggest work was sold in Kolkata. For details contact 28474331, 28474053.
