Madhuri Kathe

Art is an elaboration and interpretation of beauty. It celebrates the manifestation of beauty in a created piece of work, an experience beyond the physical level. Transcendence is a state of being, that has overcome the limitations of physical existence and is wholly independent of the material universe.
To be able to see meaning in art is what triggers transcendence, it cannot be expressed but it's right there, in the valves of your heart and in the neurons of your brain cortex. It cannot be put into words but the colors and textures that are manifested while creating art, are like creations of the transcendental universal forces. Art that is perceived by the eye and the heart invokes self perception and makes us realize that the whole universe is our being.
