" A VERY ARTISTIC DIALOG", ART & CULTURE MINISTER OF RAJASTHAN SAID TO ME FOR MY LOKRANG ART STUDY.."
LOKRANG a festival of INDIAN Cultural Dance and music , Its language of folk art of INDIA. In year 2005 I were started the art work in Studio of Visual art of J.K.K,Jaipur . In that time Govt. of Rajasthan is designing the Lokrang festival by Art & cultural Department of Rajasthan . They were invited to all Indian folk dancer unite for presentation in Lokrang festival .In winter time mostly month oct.to nov. J.K.K. is organizing this folk art festival . One day i were busy in studio of visual art in J.k.k.Jaipur . that time i were listening the music sound from open theater of J.K.K. I were went out from studio and i did saw some artist was busy in dance practice with folk song and music. I did saw all artist in normal dress . That Folk music was pulling to me because i have rhythm sense of folk music in myself from childhood age . I were created rhythm by "CHANG" a traditional music strument of Rajasthan folk music and when i were exhibit my solo show in Jaislmer city that time i were learn how to create music sound from two wood slice that musical strument is "KHADTAL" i can say i am also a folk musician of Rajasthan. i have music in myself ..ha
Any way that time i were thinking something like a critical artist. 4 day i were visit all activity of Lokrang event practice from folk artist's.I were talked to many artist's and about par day income from art activity or art life . Then i did got some sad color from artist side or by artist life story. They were dancing and preforming on stage for folk and for culture but thats life level was very low and down . As a artist i were feeling pain of artist and I did packed that time from folk art sound in J.K.K. the music was nice and pure because that was pure art energy but thats energy creation way was very tuf. Idid saw there live and i did read that folk art sound by my art vision . After 2 days the preforming artist was started the live presentation on the stage for visitors with full cultural dress up of different states of INDIA. I did saw lots of color of LOKRANG live there . In evening time the LOKRANG event was looking very colorful and in morning time very dray and simple.There a artist was dancing on open stage in morning time with contemporary dress and in evening time that same artist was dancing in cultural and colorful dress. i did saw there two face of lokrang event (front and back )and i did caught some basic sound of lokrang by me and i did started to transfer that Lokrang in painting language . I did selected the color for painting of lokrang the brown( GERU) , black and white , its a traditional color of RAJSTHAN Folk art and culture . After color selection i did transfer the dancing images of folk dancer in simple line no drama no any extra exercise you can say i did try to gave the folk painting look to my painting visual and after that i were selected some traditional symbol of our folk art design for painting . when i did set my mind for painting then i did try to made the sound of lokrang in my painting like a mirror image of Lokrang festival of 2005.
this is a one art visual of my creative art work on LOKRANG 2005. In this visual you can visit the all sound of my study on Lokrang festival , I did used texture , design,'color,line of folk art of INDIA.

On last day of lokrang festival 2005 J.K.K. staff member did exhibit my art visuals of lokrang in open theater and in port of dom of J.K.K. That day i did exhibit my live study work with some critical sound in visuals in event of Lokrang 2005. Mid of Lokrang 2005 i were saw some news of Lokrang in news paper Rajasthan patrika that was very close to my critical visuals of Lokrang. So one day i were went to Rajasthan Patrika office with my art visual of lokrang .That was a live study work on lokrang festival image you can say that was a mirror image of lokrang festival by my art visual.
