The Sculpted Visions

Written by admin on .

The show presents the artist’s explorations on themes of divinity, humanity and the human spirit that binds the two through sculptures and installations. Maharjan’s experiments with material and texture not only highlight his forte as a sculptor, but also create compelling reflections on ideas of sacredness and humaneness. The artist merges traditional motifs and philosophy with contemporary forms to inquire into the essence of cultures and the enduring human qualities within them.
