he influence of consumerism on contemporary existence is a central theme in Desai’s work, particularly evident in his series “Epoch Echoes.” Here, he explores the subtle yet pervasive impact of commercial forces on human desires, aspirations, and identities. Each piece in this series invites viewers to unravel the enigmas hidden within seemingly mundane objects, exposing the unseen narratives inscribed by consumerist culture.

Desai’s technique is characterized by layered abstractions and deliberate authenticity. He transforms ordinary elements into dynamic stages, each layer infused with meaning that transcends the superficial. His approach to surface treatment serves as an invitation for viewers to contemplate the multifaceted layers of meaning within the abstract, unearthing stories hidden beneath the surface.
