Sunlit Wings is a 5x5 foot oil on canvas from the Organic Movement series, inspired by the gold-edged light of dawn. Raj utilizes his signature thread painting technique, pulling baker’s twine soaked in luminous yellow through a pliable violet oil background. This process creates feathered, sweeping gestures that evoke the sensation of "wingedness" and ascending light. Drawing inspiration from Cy Twombly’s lyrical gestures and Lee Krasner’s layered grace, the work prioritizes raw, human irregularity over digital perfection. Ultimately, the painting functions as an elemental choreography, inviting collectors to experience a quiet exhilaration through its unpredictable, life-affirming marks.
