“I am portraying the relationship of mankind with the spiritual world. We seek spirituality, peace and God outside whereas everything is within us. Through my work, I am trying to give viewers a sense that we are extremely powerful if only we realise our senses. Saints and yogis meditate and radiate such immense aura wherever they go; it shows their physical health as well as their spiritual power. We all are capable of achieving that, we just need the right mind and consistency,” says Assam-based artist Rabin who is popular as a speed painter and has set several records; his features in the Asian Book of Records, Indian Book of Records, Geniuses Book of World Records, Assamese Book of Records for painting with both hands and one leg simultaneously.

“Through these paintings, I invite all to explore the depths of spirituality, spark conversations on belief systems and discover the universal threads that unite us all in our quest for the divine. I wish this exhibition be a testament to the enduring fascination of God, a celebration of human creativity and an invitation to contemplate the mysteries of the cosmos,” says Rabin.
