Kolkata, Yellow in Motion

Original Artwork | Messy Art Book

A city that never quite stands still

This piece is part of my Ways We Wandered series, where I explore movement and everyday life through ink drawings.

Kolkata, Yellow in Motion is inspired by the iconic yellow taxis that are always part of the city’s rhythm. There is a sense of constant movement, even when the streets feel slow.

I wanted to capture that familiarity through lines and structure. The ink medium keeps the drawing direct and expressive, like a quick observation from a passing moment.

A small note from me

This series comes from wandering without a fixed plan. Sometimes you stop because something catches your eye, and that becomes the whole story.
