Rameshwar Broota's reverse technique of 'extracting' forms and imagery from the canvas began in the late 1970s. This unique, subtractive process involves scraping away painted layers of monochromatic hues by nicking the blade across the canvas to create nuanced tones and textures.
"Rameshwar is skilled at textures. His is a sort of nature painting; a natural world, but not the one seen by the naked eye, only the inner. One can have rows and rows of toppling rectangles, semi-circles or horse-shoe signs and symbols. All of which, plus a dry surface, afford a masculine, resolute feel to his work."
