2. The original sculpture of Buddha and its modern
interpretation in applied art communication by an Applied
artist SUNIL MAHADIK for his client Shyam Ahuja.
This face has radiated serenity
since the fifth century, when
Buddhist monks inhabited a set
of remarkable hand‐cut cave
temples built for them at Ajanta
in central India. The name of the
beatific figure is Bodhisattva
Padmapani, a Buddhist deity
who represents infinite
compassion. Appearing near the
entrance of one of the shrines,
Padmapani stands as guardian,
offering a vision of peace to all
who enter. “The painting is a
mirror,” whispered my guide,
Indian photographer and
filmmaker Benoy Behl. “It shows
us the divine part of ourselves.
Study both the slides i.e. top and above to understand comparative
visual impact of the original painting and sculpture of Buddha on
and its modern interpretation in applied art communication.

3. This is the display of
Graphic Symbols
designed by two different
applied graphic designers
who are the pioneers of
modern Indian Graphic
Design : Roby D’Silva (on
the left) and Late
Yeshwant Chaudhary (on
the right) from India.
(Yes they were friends too)
It shows one is inspired
by the European Visual
Language and the other
is trying to figure out
Indian Visual Language
through western
methodologies. This one
is from my study which
I felt is relevant to this
topic in order to explore
new angle.

scientific drawing methodologies
between EAST and WEST.
