Soumen Khamrui 1

 
     
In this moody and evocative composition, Saumen Khamrui captures the mystique of a mountainous terrain under the influence of an ominous sky. The dominant dark silhouettes of the hills appear almost abstract, allowing the textured strokes of black, deep indigo, and umber to form a haunting topography. The upper section burns with hues of ochre, rust, and golden yellow—suggesting a tumultuous sky at dusk or dawn. The interplay of light and dark not only conveys the artist’s fascination with natural phenomena but also evokes an emotional landscape where form and atmosphere merge into one.
