Maverick man. Stalwart of the fashion and advertising fraternity. Respected member of the photographic community. Currently driving towards feature film-making.
"Subliminal" is the emergence of Ashok Salian as an artistic image-maker. This avatar will be one more achievement to his already accomplished persona. This creative image-maker draws inspiration from his experiences and the subconscious which provide sufficient content showing his technical and darkroom proficiency.
Stylistically unique, both Ashok Salian and his work reflect this.Clearly his images talk to you and draw you within the depth of another world, looking, searching and connecting on various levels. These spiritual images will take you into the journey of the soul. His pioneering efforts and selflessness in helping the cause of art photography to grow did not distract him from creating truly inspiring images. He in fact thrived on it and produced a magical body of work.A solo show for an artist of his caliber was the obvious path to choose at this point in his career. A definitive mark in his life.Not only is it an important moment for Ashok Salian,but in fact it is a historic moment for fine art photography in the country.The timing of this show could not be better - art photography has finally been recognized.

1. Surrealism2. Introspection
