উড়ন্ত (Uronto): Flying

উড়ন্ত (Uronto) literally means flying… for me it’s more than that. It’s also about freedom, precision and engineering marvel of nature. This is a 18” x 24” mixed media painting inspired from my visit to Düsseldorf Kunst im Tunnel and the Sundarban region of Bengal.

Dragonflys are amazing flyers, they can fly 20-35 miles/ hour (30-55 Km/hour), have almost 360• view, turn on dime, fly backwards while in flight. However, the blue-tailed bee-eater catcher still plucks it out of the sky… such is nature. So let’s enjoy the time we have for carefree flight.
