With this collection, Rahul Mishra looks at his constant muse i.e. nature as the ultimate sculptor and artist. Through a sculptor's lens, the collection appreciates otherwise simple natural forms for their structural personality.
Envisioned in bright solid hues and graphic textures, the inspiration reveals itself in rigid but organic installations of natural forms that consist of vegetal and animal motifs. As a strong reference to his eight-year-old daughter’s influence on his creative endeavours, the visuals are partially influenced by the children’s story, ‘The Fox and the Star’ whose characters appear in the collection amongst other imagined structures.
The collection also plays with geometric representations of some organic forms to represent the relationship between stone and sculpture.
On the work front, Ananya Panday, who was last seen in 'Kho Gaye Hum Kahan' with Adarsh Gourav and Siddhant Chaturvedi, is gearing up for her next projects - 'Control' and 'The Untold Story of C Sankaran Nair.'
