Description
The canvas depicts a formation that is rather unusual. What may come across as a dance formation gone awry, is actually a scene of a gathering with a clear motive. A close look at the periphery of the activity reveals a loudspeaker, radio and other similar equipment. A wire leads to the microphone which is being used by a man seated on a piece of furniture. A more intent glance reveals a kneeling figure at his feet. It becomes clear that this is a contemporary gathering of the community. It is likely that the central line of people are waiting for their turn to pay obeisance to the man at the microphone. Sadashiv Mashe continues to weave contemporary narratives with traditional skills, giving the viewer’s imagination a chance to delve into the modern lifestyle of these tribal communities.
