Water Rhymes-3 at Galleri Kaya

A watercolour by Md. Kamruzzoha.

A group watercolour exhibition titled “Water Rhymes-3”, featuring works of 10 promising artists is on at Galleri Kaya, Uttara, Dhaka. The featured artists at the exhibition are Karu Titas, Anisuzzaman, Shohag Parvez, Gopal Chandra Saha, Md. Kamruzzoha, Shahanoor Mamun, Didarul Hossain Limon, Soikat Hossain, Arafat Karim and Shaik Faizur Rahman.

The artists have predominantly depicted landscapes and the scenic natural beauty of Bangladesh. Karu Titas' work “My Beautiful Bangladesh-38” depicts buffalo and ox driven carts crossing a small river. The riverbed with background greenery engages with its nostalgic view of idyllic Bengal. Anisuzzaman's watercolour “Verses written through water-41” portrays huts, boats and green paddy fields on the sands of Jamuna River.

Gopal Chandra Saha has delineated an eye catching portrait of Tagore. The oriental line-based work is also evocative of calligraphy, featuring the text of the bard. Shahanoor Mamun's work “Boat, Sundarban”, Shohag Parvez's work “Chaktai Khal, Chittagong” and Arafat Karim's watercolour “Rajbari Railway Station” are fine example of realistic arts.

The exhibition was inaugurated on April 16 and will continue till April 27.
