Mohan Samant

Kings And The Crowd

1969

A dynamic and layered composition, Mohan Samant's *Kings And The Crowd* employs mixed media on canvas to weave together a rich tapestry of figures, symbols, and textures that evoke themes of power, hierarchy, and collective identity. Samant's signature fusion of Indian artistic tradition with modernist sensibilities creates a vibrant interplay between the regal and the common, the individual and the mass. The work pulses with an energy that blurs the boundaries between mythology, history, and contemporary human experience.
