our birth thrusts us from warm comfort into heat, cold, hunger and pain, into a relentless struggle for survival. as soon as we take our first uncertain steps, we are running. through the stages of life, through compulsions and expectations – for education, jobs, power, position, money. we compete to excel, and there is no excuse for failure. life allows no compromises – we either perform or perish. fancies, desires and dreams are relegated to the margins as we run on breathlessly, breaklessly. the reasons change. but the run that marks the onset of our life continues till our last drawn breath.
we run this rat race we call life.
the universe runs on through space and time, and we run on towards an elusive future. this year gauranga kuila and team highlight this theme of ‘the run’ through their Art.
