Rohtak, May 6, 2026: The art exhibition—‘Abhivyanjana’—organized by the Dada Lakhmi Chand State University of Performing and Visual Arts (DLC SUPVA), Rohtak, is captivating audiences, particularly the youth. A celebration of creativity, this exhibition serves as a vibrant confluence of ideas, emotions, and imagination. More than 2,000 artworks created by over 300 students from the five major departments under the Faculty of Visual Arts—Applied Art, Sculpture, Animation, Painting, and Printmaking—have been showcased here.

At the exhibition, students from the Animation Department have presented a magnificent display of modern technology combined with their own imagination, featuring character designs, 3D models, film animation sequences, animated weaponry, vehicles, robots, and more. Meanwhile, students from the Applied Art Department have impressively portrayed contemporary themes through the mediums of advertising, graphic design, and visual communication. Utilizing both computer-aided and manual techniques, these artworks allow students to present their perspectives on social, entertainment, and traditional themes in a fresh and innovative style. Stories of women's liberation, for instance, have been visually depicted on the walls through the art of typography.

In the Painting Department’s section, students have woven a magical tapestry of colors upon their canvases. Through the mediums of watercolors, acrylics, poster art, portraiture, and calligraphy, the students have conveyed a diverse range of social, religious, cultural, and traditional messages.

Students from the Sculpture Department have crafted statues, structural forms, and various other objects using materials derived from everyday items. Vinay Kumar, the Faculty Coordinator (FC) for the Faculty of Visual Arts, noted that sculpture represents a harmonious blend of both modern and traditional artistic sensibilities. In this exhibition, students have presented marvelous artworks using commonly utilized materials such as plaster, cement, clay, terracotta, POP (Plaster of Paris), soil, iron, wood, and paper. Large earthen vessels typical of Haryana, elements from old walls, and agricultural implements have also been incorporated into the creation of these sculptures.

Sharad, an Assistant Professor at the Faculty of Visual Arts, noted that students have also showcased artworks representing the ancient craft of printmaking. This art form—traditionally created by carving stone—dates back centuries. The display features magnificent prints created through various techniques, including screen printing, woodcutting, etching, and metal printing. More than 95 students from the Foundation Department have presented works spanning 2D art, 3D art, typography, creative painting, lifestyle painting, outdoor painting, and technical painting.

Vice-Chancellor Dr. Amit Arya said that this exhibition serves as a magnificent platform for students to showcase the artistic creations they have diligently worked on throughout the year. This year marks the 11th edition of the exhibition. Following a rigorous evaluation and judging process based on various criteria, students who have presented exceptional artworks are honored with awards. Union Minister Manohar Lal is set to attend the awards ceremony, scheduled for Thursday, as the Chief Guest.
