Rasa Appreciation of original charcoal masterpiece
“Gopi with Letter”
(Watercolour, Pune, 1994)
Mumbiram had evolved an entirely novel idea about how the ‘Game of Rasa Art’ would be practised in the upcoming age of Rasa Renaissance. Here Chitra is seen sitting on the ground writing a letter. Chitra used to carry overhead loads of fruit in the vegetable market place where Mumbiram had his atelier. When she was introduced to Mumbiram by a mutual acquaintance she was fascinated by the very unique lifestyle of the rasa artist. She immediately expressed her desire to join the artist’s endeavor in whatever capacity he could have her join. Mumbiram accepted it as a challenge and made her his ‘secretary’. Chitra hailed from a former untouchable caste and had barely learned as a child to read and write in the native Marathi language.
But she was extremely proficient in ‘supersoul communication’ (communication through God in everyone’s heart).
She soon became a very interesting communication channel to the international admirers that Mumbiram the Rasa Artist was attracting. In this masterpiece that began as a quick line drawing Mumbiram had accurately captured her sitting and writing posture with one knee on the ground and the other knee lifted. The exquisitely executed profile shows the intense concentration that the act of writing has summoned. Chitra was so impressed with the audacious aplomb of the quick rendering that she asked if she could colour in the line drawing with watercolours. Amazingly Mumbiram allowed her to do it. She chose the blue and red combination that Mumbiram readily encouraged. Chitra has just ended up writing a letter to Mumbiram’s Korean admirers in an awesome informal version of the native Marathi language. Mumbiram had translated it into an equally creative version of the English language. While the letter has worked like a blissful charm the painting had been received as a contemporary masterpiece.
