Description

This surreal ink drawing by Himmat Shah conjures a dreamlike theatre of distorted figures and symbolic gestures, echoing his fascination with primal forms and ritualistic expression. The upper section stages abstract humanoid entities in ceremonial poses, framed by geometric and architectural motifs that suggest ancient ruins or sacred spaces. Below, elongated figures with flowing tendrils evoke mythic beings—guardians, wanderers, or spirits—caught in a silent dialogue. Shah’s ink work channels both the subconscious and the archaeological, weaving together memory, myth, and modernist abstraction into a haunting visual chant.
