Dyslexia does not deter Saisharan's skill in art
It takes a while for G N S Saisharan to understand, interpret and respond to other person while interacting but his creativity is sure to take one by surprise.
Visakhapatnam: It takes a while for G N S Saisharan to understand, interpret and respond to other person while interacting but his creativity is sure to take one by surprise. The walls of Visakha Museum speak volumes of his creations under the title 'Pratyaksha –Paroksha', his maiden solo exhibition.
A dyslexic person, Saisharan's disorder makes it difficult for him to learn. However, it does not come in the way of showcasing his talent in art. Rising above all odds, he unleashes his creativity through mixed media works on canvas at the fair. "I feel happy when I paint and also enjoy the hues that my mind perceives while painting," says Saisharan, who completed his Bachelor of Fine Arts in Andhra University.
A man of few words, abstract art seems to be his passion. Also, there are images of Hanuman, a group of friends and a man with a bow and an arrow along with other abstract works. Showing one of his paintings, Saisharan says, "These are the negative traits which need to be fought against. It should be erased from our mind."
After the initial identification of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, the artist's parents K Nirupa and Cmde (Rtrd) G V Ratnam say that they came to know that their only son was suffering from dyslexia from his childhood. "He doesn't believe in structured learning but speaks about philosophy. He is fond of music, painting and loves his sloka-chanting sessions," they told The Hans India.
However, Saisharan says that his first love is music as it de-clutters his mind and offers comfort. "But painting is another medium through which I like to communicate as I often find it challenging to express myself through words," shares the 22-year-old artist.
Close to 24 of the artist's works adorn the walls of the museum. Those who like to have a glimpse of his works can visit Visakha Museum on Sunday (12 noon to 8 pm) and on Monday (11 am to 7 pm).
