The cutting edge golden light dazzled me; the colors lured me; the sandy dunes with its curves and patterns entangled with my creative self; the versatile characters of the locales and the indispensable camel enthralled me; the architectural vivacity with unique color regional identity left me spellbound and its rich folk music mesmerizing me.<br \/>\nWhen I entered, I was a visitor, when I moved around; Rajasthan aroused the artist within me inviting to visit again and again.<br \/>\nHere started my journey to explore the uncanny side of Rajasthan. Rajasthan has kept alive its roots; its colorful traditions; it\u2019s glorious past still gleaming on the faces of sharp featured people with the innocence so rare of now; the color clad women veiled in with the shyness, worn as the grace of womanhood; the children with sparkling curiosity in traditional attire ready to embrace the future. Rajasthan is the unique state filled with color, culture and history.<br \/>\nThis exhibition encases the fusion of real and surreal, expressed in a confluence of visual and performing expressions.<br \/>\nAnanta Mandal, Mumbai.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-359\" src=\"http:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-1.jpg\" alt=\"ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-1\" width=\"1847\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-1.jpg 1847w, https:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-1-300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-1-1024x701.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1847px) 100vw, 1847px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-2016.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-360\" src=\"http:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-2016.jpg\" alt=\"ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-2016\" width=\"1520\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-2016.jpg 1520w, https:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-2016-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-2016-1024x682.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1520px) 100vw, 1520px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-361\" src=\"http:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-3.jpg\" alt=\"ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-3\" width=\"1520\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-3.jpg 1520w, https:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-3-300x163.jpg 300w, https:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-3-1024x556.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1520px) 100vw, 1520px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-mumbai.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-362\" src=\"http:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-mumbai.jpg\" alt=\"ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-mumbai\" width=\"1390\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-mumbai.jpg 1390w, https:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-mumbai-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/anantamandal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ananta-mandal-exhibition-rajasthan-the-color-ecstasy-mumbai-1024x684.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1390px) 100vw, 1390px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2012, I visited Rajasthan for all its glory.
