Jyoti Kalra shared that “Eternal Heritage” takes viewers on a deep journey into the ancient city of Banaras, exploring India’s rich spiritual and cultural heritage. Paramesh Paul’s paintings reflect the ancient ghats and temples of Banaras, showing a heritage that continues to influence and inspire today’s world.
Paramesh Paul describes his paintings as vibrant and filled with mythological imagery, blending the physical with the spiritual. Born in a rural village in West Bengal in 1970, his early life was influenced by pottery and craft. He started his art journey by making clay sculptures of gods and later took inspiration from Hindu symbols like the Nandi bull, Lord Shiva, the Ganges River, the ghats, and the sacred temples of Banaras.
Guests who attended the event included Sunit Tandon, Anupam Sud, Tirthanker Viswas, and many other art lovers and friends
