Fused light bulbs, dead cell phones, bent steel crockery etc. are some of the
things he has used in the past and uses also now to curate some of the best
pieces of all time. He also got a chance to exhibit his work as a solo artist
which provided him a platform to showcase his art pieces and to also learn
about the audience’s reaction to his “kind of work”, and as expected, the
audience was spellbound and applauded him for his art. This was a turning and
a calling point for him.
Whether it is a fun fact or just an admiration, but everything and anything
passing through artist Haribaabu’s hands, is infused with a large dose of mukti,
general Indian phase to represent the never ending cycle of life.
His philosophy of the unending cycle of birth and rebirth, which he sees in
stillness, is mesmerizing and a tad different approach than others. Maybe this
is something which makes him keep going on and on.
As said earlier, NID proved to provide an ever-changing life experience to the
artist, so much so that he was ready to face the world and embrace upcoming
opportunities which directed him to be an in-demand Graphic and Animation
head at various firms, but major break with his personalized studio which he
started after he quit his job in 2009.
It’s been almost 9+ years and the glory from his work has only shone amidst
all the chaos and darkness. This artistic artist has loads of amazing exhibitions
and projects to his name like “FROM WASTE TO ART” Exhibition at Baku,
Azerbaijan in October, 2017, “KERALA MUSEUM ART RESIDENCY” at
Kochi, Kerala, India in September 2015 and a lot more to count.
He’s a long way to go ahead with all his hard-work and good wishes from
admirers like us! His down to earth nature and love for art is highly motivating
for the youth!
