Statement of Lucky Jaiswal:
“My paintings have a deep connection with the rustic charm and simplicity of Indian
villages and are a canvas where elements of rural life are not only painted but also
celebrated. In every stroke, I try to bring to life the aroma and colours of the mud
houses, which is the epitome of the village architecture. These mud walls and their
cracks tell stories of time and weather. The rural themes I portray are made of thick –
thin wood, mud and grass – pallets, which stand as a testament to the simplicity and
resourcefulness of rural life. Between the earthy colours and pastel colours that reflect
the village lifestyle, my art finds its heartbeat through the bright colours.

For example – Some tangled colorful piece in a dry bush coloured stone stained in
clay…Bright colors peeking out from somewhere in a dusty field… Muddy wall, cracks
in the wall, and colorful woods peeking out of the cracks … The bright sunlight reading
on the haystack. Autumn season and rural women dressed in bright colours passing
through the dry autumn trees…Which add a playful contrast to the entire color palette.
My paintings are not just representations of the Indian village; Rather, it is an attempt
to bring its spirit to the canvas. It strives to capture the essence of rural life – the
simplicity, warmth, and vibrant culture that thrives in its homes. Through my painting
I invite the viewer to step into a world where the village and the artistry come
together.”
