About This Artwork

Wings of Dharma celebrates the Indian bull as a timeless emblem of righteousness, resilience, and spiritual awakening. Elevated by radiant crimson wings, the bull moves with effortless grace through an infinite blue expanse, suggesting a journey that transcends the physical realm. Its serene, upward gaze reflects unwavering faith and the quiet confidence that comes from living in harmony with one's true purpose. The luminous blue background evokes the vastness of the cosmos, while the subtle geometric forms allude to the hidden order that governs existence. The striking contrast between the cool atmosphere and the vibrant wings symbolizes the union of wisdom and action, contemplation and courage. Rooted in Indian philosophy yet expressed through a contemporary visual language, the painting transforms the bull into a guardian of dharma—a reminder that genuine strength is revealed through compassion, integrity, and steadfast devotion to a higher path.

About the Artist

Tushar Baliram Jadhav

Tushar Jadhav (b. 1990, Maharashtra, India) is a contemporary visual artist whose practice is deeply rooted in Indian philosophy, mythology, and cultural symbolism. Born into a farming family in rural Maharashtra, his artistic vision has been profoundly shaped by the rhythms of village life, traditional agricultural practices, and the spiritual significance of animals within Indian culture. His work investigates the Indian Bull (Nandi) as a timeless symbol of strength, devotion, endurance, fertility, and the interconnectedness of humanity with nature. Rather than depicting the bull as merely a religious icon, Jadhav reinterprets it as a contemporary metaphor for India's evolving cultural identity. His paintings combine figurative realism with abstraction, sacred geometry, symbolic motifs, layered textures, and expressive brushwork to create visual narratives that connect ancient traditions with contemporary thought. Working primarily in acrylic, oil, charcoal, and mixed media on canvas.
