Trinetra VIII in her fluid blood-coral hybrid form embodies the first-born creature who “was of the same size and kind as a man and woman closely embracing. He caused himself to fall into two pieces, and from him a husband and wife were born” (Brihadaranyaka Upanishad, 2020). With a third universal eye she argues for an interdependent self-identity that makes connections across gender, nationality, colour, class, and race and multispecies cohabitation.

Mythology and Religion

Deep impressions of the folk culture of coastal Karnataka during Praksh’s growing up years, is reflected in this series of paintings entitled "Goddess".
The Goddess series stands out for its philosophical reflection and lyrical mood that is matched by the compact brush strokes, imbued traditional elements and earthy colours. It stands to depict the strong ties that tether humans to our native land and culture. Deep shades of blue and ochre often highlighted by earthy browns and presence of nature elements like leaves, fishes and birds interspersed with human figures – all suggest the abundance of life, its beauty and bounty.

"Contemporary female bust with butterflies. Trilokini reminds us that we are one with our environment, inseparable from it. When we take time apart to connect with nature it helps us get in touch
with our higher selves.  The butterfly’s metamorphosis is a timeless analogy for personal transformation which is often filled with
painful phases. Change is inevitable and often unwelcome but ultimately, it is a worthwhile journey that makes us grow and this kind of growth usually
tends to elevate us to a higher realm of consciousness. "

Trilokini 9

Camouflage VI has been inspired by Klimt's living, breathing woman with a brooding air—rather than a serene, mythical being. As a female subject, she is a strong, expressive woman capable of both seduction and creation. This approach rejects the traditional approaches to painting that embrace classicism  and naturalism. The shimmering gold and patterns reference both allure, charm and strength.
