“The first thing that strikes you is that creative time is hardly impacted by the linear tick of the clock. Time, as it is measured in the flow of ideas, in the tides of the imagination, or in the seasons of the mind seems to be free from such tyranny. At a cursory glance so little seems to have changed; yet much has. There has been the slow, undulating motion of artistic growth. You notice subtle changes: the colours and tones have altered somewhat and even the ways of seeing have been transformed ever so gradually.

For Vasudev, 40-plus years of art have moved in a more or less unhurried flow. There have been no abrupt detours, no startling about-turns. Vasudev has always worked with an easy rhythm that emerges from self-assurance.”
