Focusing on unfocussed:Photo display exhibits plight of farmers' widows,offers ray of hope

New Delhi, Aug 26 (UNI) A unique art exhibition, not just showcasing the plight of widows of farmers, who committed suicide, but also giving them a flicker of hope, in the form of ways to alleviate their distress, while also tackling the ever-increasing and worrisome problem of farmers' suicide, is on display at the national capital.
Titled 'The Nature of Things', the seven-day photo event, featuring the works of author and impressionist-abstract artist Kota Neelima, efficaciously captures the grief, pain and struggle of the women, who lost their poverty-stricken husbands to death chosen by themselves, in the sleepy town of Beed in Maharashtra.
Inaugurated on August 23 at Visual Art Gallery of India Habitat Centre, the exhibit features 40 pieces of works, including photographs and paintings (both oil and canvas), on theme, inspired by the Upanishads on the nature of the Self and the world, in all its incompleteness and the un-reconciled.
