“Cosmic Storm” (1972)

“Cosmic Storm” stands as a testament to Beas’s innovative spirit and his willingness to embrace the elements in his creative process. This 1972 piece marks an early foray into the experimental techniques that would come to define his work, harmonizing the vibrant viscosities of oil and acrylic with the natural patterns of rain. The storm itself participated in the painting’s creation, its raindrops etching outlines into the wet media, integrating the chaos of nature into the order of art. This unique method resulted in a dynamic composition that mirrors the unpredictable beauty of a cosmic maelstrom, making it a fitting precursor to the more focused explorations in his later Big Bang series. “Cosmic Storm” not only captures a moment of creative serendipity but also reflects the broader theme of the series: the formative and often tumultuous processes that shape the universe.
