I love living in a multicultural society but recently found myself being classified based on my appearance alone. Not belonging completely to the country I live nor my ethnic origin was for me, to be at a cross road of emotions. My painting "Weeping Willow" reflects my state of mind to be a part of both worlds and trying to find acceptance. #mayooranuk #paintdrums #mridangam #drumart #carnaticmusic #deforestationawareness #drumbeat #artinstadaily #artvideos #oilpaintingoncanvas #fingerpainting #paintingprocess #performances #artprocess #paintmixing #originalpainting #instaartistic #instapainting #artgalleries #performingarts #artistoninstagram #modernart #instaartist #contemporaryart #artwork (at Srilanka Jafna) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8qdtaPBHR1/?igshid=ltl2eedkq5iq

"Anthem of the Seas" Acrylic on board Throwback back to three years ago when I painted Anthem of the Seas for Royal Caribbean Cruises. The painting went into auction to raise for Royal Marsden Hospital, however it did not sell ☹️ I hope the painting will sell one day and proceeds will support the work done by the hospital to fight cancer. I am posting this to also show my work that I wasn't proud of. I enjoyed creating the background but wished I had approached the the ship differently. Usually people share only their highlights but its more important to be real.

"Life is short and is for living. Don't wait" Emma Pontin Falk I had met Emma Pontin only once when she delivered an inspirational speech of how she had left her career in law to sail around the world and fight her battle with breast cancer. Throwback 3 years to this day since the memorial of Emma Pontin onboard Celebrity Eclipse. I was honoured to have had the opportunity to paint this portrait of a remarkable woman and present it to her family. #celebritycruises #emmapontin #celebrity #eclipse #inspiration @cr_uk @walkthewalk #fightcancer #breastcancer #artist #cruise #british #uk #painting #portrait #strong #woman #memorial @jrzymowska #tamil #acrylic #tbt #life (at Celebrity Eclipse) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw362pxAwS9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1mrwfm421pj65

During a rainy day in Oxford Street London, crowds were drenched in fashion, sheltering beneath the seas of designer umbrellas, waiting at the pitstop of the traffic lights. I used drum beats with the paintbrush to get the sounds of the rain which was a reflection of the colourful street lights.

“Dreaming of Depression” . . I woke up to find the right side of my head weighing me down like a ton of bricks. Broken in pieces yet still attached. I turned to the mirror and realised, it was all a dream. . . What should have been a sigh of relief, was overshadowed by the nightmare of reality. I sought solace in my sleep. Escaping and not facing the issue. It was time to get help. . . Sharing my experiences, I found I was not alone. People I looked up to went through depression at some point in their life and overcame it. This gave the strength to persevere. Taking each day as it came, I picked up the pieces and worked on rebuilding my inner self. . . Original oil on canvas, 10th February 2019, 60 x 50 x 1.5cm . .

Think outside the box? I think not. Why have a box in the first place? Art in a box The journey started from my frustration surrounding the 'rules' in art. This collection is the result of my battle scars from creative freedom vs. acceptance of art. This piece contains 35 canvases (8" x 8"), each individually signed. This is my description of each canvas. How do you interpret it? Can you guess my order? Allegory of the cave Confused Matrix Digital Takeover Idea Factory Systemic Mess Ignorance is Bliss Infinity - There was a time when I could imagine space that was infinite. I could close my eyes and see no end, creativity that was limitless. Awaken Mountains Balance Superficial - The city continues to grow taller with iconic architecture but neglects the building blocks of society Why do we need to be put in a box? - Identity Tree in the sky Think outside of the box. What is the box that defines creativity? Heat Wave Dragon Butterfly Flying Omniscient Fear of Failure Music through my eyes Sea of Followers 7steps Song bird Broken Wing Before starting something Mesmerised - I forgot the world around How far do you let yourself get lost in art? The Journey Isolated butterfly - The feeling of wanting to fly with your creativity but prisoned by the social norm Is there a pattern to the random events in life? Stairway to somewhere Fire on Water Escape the box Original oil on canvas, 9th June 2018 57 x 41 x 2 inches / 145 x 103 x 5 cm #artist #artwork #painting #freedom #journey #insta #art #artinabox #box #inspiration #passion #creative #instaart #artforsale #fire #instamood #gallery #exhibition #collection #abstract #contemporary #modern

...Stutter I have a voice but could not speak. I am ... There was a time I couldn't say my own name. Creativity has given me the confidence to express myself, whether it be through art, music or dance. I am Mayooran and I have a voice. This painting shows the lips of Angelina Jolie, who is a humanitarian standing for women's rights. There are still women today whose voices are being silenced. Don't let their words blend into the background. #listen Original oil on canvas, 20th June 2018, 40cm x 40cm #angelinajolie #women #equality #womensrights #feminism #art #inspiration #standup #stutter #stammer #artist #metoo @instagram #instaart #lips #red #voice #speach #patience #breathe #girlpower #creative #confidence #standup #gallery #share this post https://www.instagram.com/p/BkRDwZBn9SL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1lxr8t5bg4m19

Grateful for the support from my family and friends who came to view my first group exhibition. Inspired by the talented artists who also exhibited their work and enjoyed the conversations I had with the people of Croydon who shared a connection through art. #artist #passion #painting #exhibition #art #croydon #ukartist #tamilartist #comtemporaryart #modernart #drum #performanceart #likeme #dreaming #depression #mentalhealthawareness #time #tide #traffic #lights #artinabox #roots (at Croydon, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bues4MCgABr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=17zfm8qejqghp

#Like me

The past, present & future of the anti-social network.

In 1829, Jacob Bigelow considers technology to be "...useful, by promoting the benefit of society, together with the emolument of those who pursue them”

Today, social media helps our basic social requirements for others to like (the image of) me.

In the future, I predict we will not have a requirement for others to like us. We will immerse ourselves in the illusion of a perfect reality and disconnect from human interaction, except for the benefit of society.

Don't forget to #like 😉😋 Original oil on canvas, 22nd June 2018, 30cm x 30cm
