I know Anil since the late 80's. We call him Thumbs up… because he had 6 fingers in his right hand. When he was working in Botswana, he cut his 6th finger. We still call him Thumbs up…
Three years back Anil called me from Chennai. He was attending an art camp at Mahabalipuram. He asked, 'Abul, where are you?'. I said, 'I am in Tiruvannamalai'. He wanted to meet me. He came to Agni shylam and stayed with me for few days. We went to the marvelous contemporary time museum of art - the Arunachaleshwarar temple. He was moved by the architectural marvel and the magnificent Chola rock sculptures.
Anil is born in Kerala. At a very young age he decided to become an artist. In his early ages his interest was in different art practices, which also included martial art. He joined Trivandrum Arts college to do his bachelor degree. After that, he did his MA from Delhi college of art. During the 90's he became a editorial illustrator and his remarkable contribution to Sunday Observer and many other periodicals / newspapers is noted. He has been using video art, sculptures and has been performing in various galleries / other art venues through out the country. He has done several sculptures which are significant in the contemporary art practice. He also has been teaching in various art institutions in India and abroad. His interest in various art forms including photography, music, architecture and poetry is still alive and is reflected in his works.
