WHAT am I looking at? What does it make me feel? What message am I taking home? Does the artwork talk or appeal to me?

From stage to canvas

These might be a few questions that come to our minds when we visit an art show, where we turn from corner to corner and wonder about the backstory of each painting. In the words of Ralph Waldo Emerson, "In art, the hand can never execute anything higher than the heart can imagine".

Bringing these words true to life, young Bharatanatyam dancers tried to recreate the pose and the emotions they noticed in various artworks open for the public to see over the weekend. The paintings displayed at 'Graceful Strokes', an art exhibition, entered the Jackhi Book of World Records. A total of 170 artists came together for this record. They were awarded a certificate by Maniam Selvam, an eminent artist-illustrator for Tamil magazines, Shyam, an artist-actor-fashion instructor and Martin Sagayaraj, headmaster of St Paul's Mahajana Higher Secondary School, at the inaugural ceremony on Saturday.
