La acuarela, es solo un procedimiento y, como tal permite al artista pueda la forma de utilizar la acuarela que mejor le permita trasmitir lo que el artista desee expresar.
En este caso, Prashant Prabhu, utiliza la mejor tradición de la pintura China de con fuerte influencia del arte Zen. El ideal, para este arte es llegar a lo que llaman Wu Wei: Las personas que llegan a Wu Wei sienten como si no estuvieran haciendo nada, mientras que a la vez pueden estar realizando una obra de arte sobresaliente.
Si cuento todo esto, es porque lo que quiero decir es, que Prashant Prabhu, logra este estado que solo conseguían los grandes maestros de la tradición Zen. Logra así transmitirnos su sensibilidad ante el paisaje, su capacidad de síntesis, y el gozo que produce el dominio del procedimiento: Limpias transparencias, gracia en la pincelada, la difícil sencillez…
Prashant Prabhu, eres un gran acuarelista.
Watercolor is just a procedure and, as such, it allows the artist the way to use watercolor that best allows him to transmit what the artist wants to express.
In this case, Prashant Prabhu uses the best tradition of Chinese painting with a strong influence of Zen art. The ideal for this art is to reach what they call Wu Wei: People who reach Wu Wei feel as if they were not there. doing nothing, while at the same time they may be producing an outstanding work of art.
If I tell all this, it is because what I want to say is that Prashant Prabhu achieves this state that only the great masters of the Zen tradition achieved. He thus manages to transmit to us his sensitivity to the landscape, his capacity for synthesis, and the joy that it produces. the mastery of the procedure: Clean transparencies, grace in the brushstroke, difficult simplicity...
