An accountant by profession, Siva literally stopped dabbling in art after he lost his mother when he was very young. It was after 14 years that he took to art again. He attended art classes and soon was spending time between lunch, drawing trees and everything natural.
While looking for a theme for this exhibition he chanced upon the meaning of the word "bark" in the Hindu scriptures. It was another name of Shiva. That drove him to do many charcoal sketches and a handful were selected for this show.
He says, "People fail to see what a tree can offer. I want to show them of the beauty that is, even in barks."
Three works are exhibited in this exhibition and it is all about barks! When asked whether he would continue with this series, he says "I want to be spontaneous, so I will wait for the next inspiration."
