E.H. PUSHKIN, A VISIONARY IN THE REALM OF SUSTAINABLE ART, ELOQUENTLY CAPTURES THE ESSENCE OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY IN HIS LATEST SCULPTURE.
“This is one of my latest sculptures, which I have created as ‘sustainable art’ because the materials I have used to make it are recycled or discarded. The piece of wood used to create this work was collected from a pile of firewood and the black rope is made from recycled plastic. For nature, sustainability is an ongoing process to maintain its existence, and that’s why life has existed for millions of years. So we have the same responsibility to practice sustainable living to support our nature/planet to continue its existence for another millions of years,” says the eminent artist E.H. Pushkin.
E.H. Pushkin, a versatile artist, has created a new vocabulary in Visual Arts, reflecting societal anxieties and tensions through his abstract series and unique paintings.
His paintings and sculptures often highlight his insights on society, reflecting his sense of anxiety and tension in the current era. This is evident in his abstract series “Sign Here” and paintings such as “An Artist’s Heart in an Art Gallery,” “The Bleeding Coffee Mug,” “Man Running Toward the Most Beautiful Work of Art Ever Created,” “An Extreme Lonesome Space for the Reader,” and “Future Mode of Preserving Your Identity.”
Unique abstract works like “Future Concept of an Art Gallery for Every Human Being,” “Loneliest Being in the World,” “Young Man Crossing a Picture of an Enormous Tree Bathed in Moonlight,” “Future Concept of a Theater for Every Actor,” “An Extreme Concept Waiting for Aircraft,” “Interior of a Home at Nightfall,” and “A Single Line, Drawn by an Artist Terribly Intertwined Between Two Exits” were created during the pandemic.
E.H. Pushkin studied at the College of Fine Arts, Thiruvananthapuram, and M.S. University, Baroda. He has exhibited his work in many countries, including Europe, the USA, Latin America, Switzerland, Beijing, Bangkok, Taipei, and Mauritius. His creative posters on nature conservation have been exhibited in Saudi Arabia and at the World Conservation Congress in Canada and Jordan.
