Vineet Kacker

Vineet is a master of pigment and glaze, his three
figurative studies deploy a subtle and sombre array
of matt earth colours on stoneware, sometimes
piqued by a gloss finish, a note of celadon on
porcelain. In a note to me years ago he said: “In
this series, organic forms referencing Himalayan
landscapes interact with the architectural forms.
Conceptually the works are about time and
timelessness – the lines on the landscape forms
allude to the layering of time, a reference to finite
or chronological time. The small form with its
elements itself is a reliquary, but also a signifier
of ancient wisdom - a finger pointing towards the
timeless, self-perpetuating nature of existence.”
