Open, half-closed, tightly shut and even slightly ajar, solid wood, plywood, grilled, metallic, there are a variety of doors and each of them signifies something different. Get in or go out, stay within the threshold and be bound by the limits, cross it and be a rebel, linger on, or shut it tight and hold a secret, to each their own. Some are a gateway to the past, that take you down the memories, while others open up to a new future, hold a new adventure to the next chapter of your life. Santhana Krishnan has been fascinated by doors since his childhood, and throughout his lucrative career, he has focused on a single subject: doors. Finding them poetic, Krishnan loves to paint the old doors from his hometown Kumbakonam. Art observers might find the extraordinary details in his paintings illustrated by a vivacious colour palette rather enthralling which might compel them to pay a visit to their own childhood, full of colourful walls, posters, paintings just next to the door. The doors that open to your hopes and dreams.

"Why a door? A colorful door.
