Ashta Pehar - The Rhythm of Time
£511.00
Size: 100 x 100 cm / 40 x 40″
Framing: Black
Ashta Pehar is inspired by the ancient Indian concept of dividing the day into eight distinct periods, each carrying its own atmosphere, energy and quiet transformation. Rooted in Hindu sacred tradition yet universal in its reflection of nature's daily rhythm, this work explores time through colour rather than chronology.
Beginning in the profound stillness of Brahma Muharat (the sacred pre-dawn hours), the composition gradually awakens through the first glow of dawn into the clarity of morning skies. It expands into the brilliance of midday, softens through the warmth of afternoon, glows with the richness of sunset and finally dissolves into the contemplative silence of night.
Rather than separating each pehar, the colours melt seamlessly into one another like layers of memory. Every passage retains traces of what came before, creating a continuous visual rhythm that reflects the cyclical nature of existence. Rich textures, expressive brushwork and a Wabi-Sabi sensibility invite the viewer to slow down and experience the quiet beauty of time unfolding.

About the Artist
I am a contemporary artist driven by a lifelong fascination with the spiritual, the symbolic and the ancient. Trained in fine arts, I have spent decades developing a practice rooted equally in deep research and painterly instinct.
My subjects are never chosen lightly. Whether drawing from ancient cosmologies, sacred geometry or spiritual traditions spanning cultures and centuries, I immerse myself in the history and meaning of a subject long before the work takes visual form — tracing its origins, understanding its symbols and finding its modern resonance.
The works that emerge are mixed media on canvas — richly layered, hand-finished in oils and acrylics, built with a surface depth that rewards close looking. Each piece carries the weight of what went into it.
Based in the UK, I work with an international collector base and welcome bespoke commissions for those seeking a work created around a specific intention, space or subject.
My paintings are made for spaces and people who value meaning as much as beauty.
