Flight

Akbar Bhavan, Chanakya Puri, New Delhi

Flight

Bronze, 1980

“This piece climaxes the experiment which had begun with showing movement by scooping out hollows. The linear rhythm would have gained by titling the torso lower than the head. All the same, like an angel passing silently before one, the bird flies off across the heart of the sky, on the permanent emptiness of space which is the counterpart of mobility itself.”

– Mulk Raj Anand, Amar Nath Sehgal, Marg Publications, 1964
