Raghu Neware :

Raghu's work creates a peculiar 'Colour-Light' experience, which exhilarates andmakes one curious about the formation of darker and shimmering segments of the canvas; done in oils, reminding one, of the walls and windows of high-rise buildings, where the moonlight or darkness mixed with city lights, cast a shadow and a fusion of colours enchants the viewer. Here the concurrence of colours also keep us engaged - in each of the canvases, a certain prominent colour (blue, red, green or black) spreads its wings to engulf the 'fusion' created by various hues. Soft textures bear dexterous use of the pigment, and one is carried away to ecstatic heights .
