Description

J.M.S. Mani’s art often celebrates the vibrancy of rural and temple life in South India, rendered with bold colors and stylized forms. His figures—typically women in traditional attire—are depicted with exaggerated features and serene expressions, evoking both simplicity and spiritual grace. The compositions are playful yet meditative, with flattened perspectives and rhythmic patterns that echo folk traditions. Mani’s work bridges the sacred and the everyday, turning ordinary moments into timeless visual poetry.
