Surreal~Geet Govindam Series

The “Geet-Govindam” is an epic poem written in Sanskrit by Jadev Goswami in 12th century. In this poem he unabashedly describes the eternal love bonding between Radha-Govinda. In “Geet-Govindam” Jayadev have recorded every nuance of the myriad emotions the couple goes through. Jealousy, sorrow, bitterness, regret, loneliness, longing, companionship and ecstasy - all have a place in this epic.

The beauty, sentiments, expressions and finesse of this great epic have influenced and inspired artist Arjun Ghosh for this painting series. He feels “Geet-Govindam” though composed in the 12th century hold relevance even now as it is enriched with the elixir of relationship of man and woman, which stands indispensible in today’s world often showing disgrace towards love, thereby nestling breaking relationship.

It is true that human beings have an unidentified thirst in their subconscious mind leading them towards acts and activities giving birth to violence, disgrace and many more, marring the humanity. To quench this thirst there are neither mundane objects nor any law, but only the elixir derived from art, music and literature.
