Lot 0097

This painting by Tathi Premchand was created in 2003, but after 20 years the same issue still appears in Indian news. The white cow and the old taxi become symbols of politics and society. People take milk from the cow, but forget the life of the animal itself. The red drop under the car shows pain, exploitation and silent violence. The artwork questions how the cow became a political issue in India. Through simple black-and-white forms, the artist shows social contradiction. This painting is a powerful visual protest about religion, power and humanity in modern India. The issue of cow politics, slaughter laws, and public debate continues in India even today.
