As you may have gleaned from his biography, Bhaskar has travelled around this planet a number of times tasting cultures very different from his own Now, with a Dutch citizenship and a house and studio in The Hague, he spends a good proportion of his time in Europe
Having said that, he is still very much a child of his mother country India and commutes regularly to and from Pune, his hometown
Both, his visual work in paint, print and sculpture along with his literary pieces in poetry and verse, give us an interpretation of life as Bhaskar sees it and he displays a deep, sensitive intuition that one would expect from an artist from his culture
I find it difficult to study his work without being reminded of the great artist Brancusi and his preoccupation with equilibrium There is a purity and a sense of balance in the work that is most satisfying to the eye and in many instances achieved with the minimum of imagery He is a man who has tasted success many times for his art and I am pleased to welcome him to Blackheath and to be involved with him and his work on this occasion
