Pervaj Hasan Rigan Painting Exhibition, Beyond the Horizon
Date: Fri, May 13, 2016 to Tue, May 24, 2016 
Time: Day long
Venue: Alliance Francaise, La Galerie

The 'Captive Soul' series in this exhibition states a mystery with psychological captivity and spirituality. In fact, I am rather influenced by baroque paintings. I have a particular fascination for Rembrandt and Caravaggio paintings in this regard. Besides, I have a great interest in Indian philosophy. So in my paintings, I have tried to make a fusion of these great obsessions of mine. In this series of paintings, sometimes I would put a lotus with a mysterious hand and sometimes I would put a priest who is bleeding from a self-inflicted wound by his own 'trishula' (a trident wielded by Shiva),"the Artist Pervaj Hasan Rigan explained.
