Asokan says he paints what he perceives and collects from nature, it has a particular meaning in the place where he lives and was brought up. Being totally immersed in his own culture. His paintings depict a journey in the manifestation of the inside, a world wthin the world we may travel in.

Asokan takes us and walks us — as a tantrist — from "image" to "image" like a tightrope walker across metaphysical aporias. It looks like we are also crossing at the same time unknown abysses of human experiences, that Asokan keeps silent, but not blind to the heart.

He has spend many  years in an "ashramam "(Monastry) deep inside in the forest  learning art and meditation under his tantric Guru.

He is  highly spiritual  and consider his  closeness with the nature is his main inspiration for his paintings.Currently he is located at  trivandrum in  India.
