Kshatachinta, Bhangan by Somenath Hore [Hardcover]

This wound is unhealed. Its backdrop is stark and disoriented.

Why does this disorientation arise? Personal life? Society? Direct politics? Human hatred toward one another? Communal riots? Or just an insatiable hunger drowned in illusion? Who is responsible? Who are the culprits?

This wound has given birth to an eternal awareness. Following the shadowed path of the Bodhi tree, Somnath Hore never sought to narrate the pain of wounds—he simply absorbed knowledge with an impartial mind.

Suffering left its imprint on his consciousness, becoming the seed of creation. Sometimes, that creation took the form of his artwork Wounds, and at other times, it emerged as this writing, this book—Kshatachinta, Bhangon (Reflections on Wounds, Fractures).
