National Preview at Lokayata Art Gallery Before International Debut
Prior to its display abroad, art enthusiasts in India will get an opportunity to view the painting. The artwork will be exhibited at the Lokayata Art Gallery from August 7 to August 10 during an event hosted by Rambo Art World. Following this domestic showcase, the piece will travel to Malaysia two months later for the upcoming International Art Exhibition, offering an international audience a window into Indian creative expression and patriotic symbolism.
Artistic Vision: Depicting Freedom Through Aquatic Life
