Joined Craft Tatva: September 2021
Sanjay Raut’s paints in a way that rhymes of his want to go back into his childhood; his upbringing in a Maharashtrian village where he listened to countless stories of Hindu culture and the Gurukul system of learning sitting on his mother’s lap. His works are vignettes of a bygone era rich in culture and rituals, full of quiet piety, solemn Brahmin boys learning and living in their Guru’s household, the same young lads boisterously singing and dancing, the ethereal Gods and Goddesses, of stories told by a mother to her child of how brave, regal, wonderful and virtuous their culture really is.
