Jupiter Pradhan

Jupiter Pradhan's works hint that orientalism has made the eastern intellectuals mannequins. By doing so, the orientalists attempt to prove eastern tradition and knowledge invalid and defunct so that they can impose the hegemony of their so called modernism. According to the artist, actually the west has shared many things from the east. Thus the artist's implied proposition is eastern artists should go back to their root. In the line of his own philosophy, Jupiter's works share some aspects of Nepali tradition.
