T.Vaikuntam Paintings CALM THE SOUL AND TRANQUILIZE VIEWERS. HE AVOIDS A DISTURBING FORM. BUT, HE HAS REPEATED THE PICTORIAL MOTIFS EXTENSIVELY. He aims to harmonize his imagination with his skills in a way that reflects his emotions. HIS PAINTINGS DEAL WITH THE THEME OF LOVE, WHICH IS ALWAYS INDIRECT AND VEILED. HE DOES THIS SUCCESSFULLY BY USING SYMBOLS LIKE THE PARROT AND MIRROR. THE MIRROR REFLECTS THE NAYIKA’S MOOD AND THE PARROT HER GENTLENESS. VAIKUNTAM’S PARROT APPEARS AS AN ARDENT LISTENER TO THE LOVER’S WOES.
THE LINE OF T. VAIKUNTAM HAS A MAGICAL QUALITY SUGGESTING BOTH CONTOUR AND VOLUME. HE CONSCIOUSLY TURNS THE LINE OF FORCE, VOLUME, AND FEEL INTO A DECORATION TO SUIT HIS PURPOSE. THE EROTICISM THUS APPEARS VERY SUBTLE AND MERELY SUGGESTIVE.
LIKE THE FOLK PAINTERS, THE FORM HAS NO ILLUSIONISTIC DEPTH. THE FABRIC’S DECORATIVE PATTERN AND ENDLESS, TYPICAL FORM REPETITIONS SHOW VAIKUNTAM’S URBANE APPROACH. THEY MAKE IT CLEAR THAT HE COULD REMODEL AND RESTRUCTURE ANY TRADITION TO DEVELOP HIS STYLE. WE FOCUS ON THE PSYCHOLOGICAL TENSIONS IN HUMAN TERMS, UNMOLESTED BY OUR ENVIRONMENT. THESE SMALL PAINTINGS WITH LARGE FIGURES OCCUPY THE VIEWERS’ GAZE. THEY SEEM TRAPPED BY THEIR DECORATED CLOTHES AND JEWELS. THEY SYMBOLIZE SOCIETAL RULES. USING POWERFUL IMAGES OF WOMEN, T. VAIKUNTAM ILLUMINATES THE MEANING OF FEMININE BEAUTY.
HE HAS EXHIBITED HIS WORK WORLDWIDE. HE HAS MANY AWARDS FOR HIS ART. THEY INCLUDE A NATIONAL AWARD, A HYDERABAD ARTS SOCIETY AWARD, AND A BIENNALE AWARD FROM BHARAT BHAVAN. HE HAS ALSO WORKED AS AN ART DIRECTOR ON SEVERAL TELUGU MOVIES, INCLUDING DAASI. IT WON HIM A NATIONAL AWARD AS BEST ART DIRECTOR. HIS PAINTINGS HAVE GROWN IN SIZE AND MEDIUM OVER THE YEARS. BUT THE MOOD OF HIS ARTWORK HAS NOT CHANGED. THIS IS DESPITE ALL THE MODERNIZATION OF SOCIETY, INCLUDING HIS VILLAGE.
