Vita / Lebenslauf:
S Jayaraj was both a dreamer and a doer from his childhood days. The taunts he experienced in his school days gave vent to his artistic expression. He then drew sketches, cartoons and caricatures of schoolmates. Thus the artist in him was born at a very tender age of 8.

S Jayaraj graduated from the Government College of Arts, Chennai, with a Bachelor degree in Visual Communication Design which opened avenues for him and it was here that he explored the work of art, the vivid world of colours. He specialised in illustration particularly, in rendering line drawings - cross hatching, parallel lines, scribble lines and various innovative techniques with line combinations.

The artist is fluent in a variety of media from small pen and inks to large canvasses painted in media like oil on canvas and acrylic on canvas. Working in charcoal and pastels stand close to Jayaraj's heart and he loves to bring out the beautiful expressions through this medium. He has a sensitive touch to portraits done in ink and he loves to work in black and white medium through his pen and ink drawings. He uses small thin strokes, which have a scratchy effect, and creates the required depth. He is very innovative with the way he uses lines and scribbles. He firmly believes that the black and white medium is best equipped to capture certain moods and expressions, which also furnishes an ethnic look to the artwork. But he is equally facile with graphite, watercolours and coloured sketches. The same kind of deftness is revealed in his paintings too.

Jayaraj is mesmerised by the rural life of India and has always well captured and brought them brilliantly alive on his canvasses. He has drawn several poignant portraits of rural folk and sketched their lives and lifestyles. He loves to bring the realities of the rural people, their mundane lives and poor livelihoods on his canvas. Jayaraj does not work only in deeds but he works in his dreams as well. He thinks and visualizes and spends good enough time on thinking deeply about a subject, its meaning and relevance, the colours, composition and designs before setting his artistic hand on the canvas. He says that he paints from his sub-conscious, which means that he spends his conscious hours feeding the sub-conscious. He expresses that what comes out on the canvas is straightway related to his inner most emotions. He travels across sub-continents and says that new places, landscapes and people widen his horizons and perspectives as a painter.

Apart from these, the other side of the artist can be seen through his figurative drawings with wonderful expressions. This has been his all-time favourite and he is very fanatical and a keen student of figures, forms, shapes, curves as that adds beauty to his work and he does full justice in doing so.

Jayaraj also applies the principles of his figurative works to his bright abstract paintings, concentrating on the harmony of saturated colours to visually portray calmness, happiness, curiosity and solitude. His impressive and varied output reflects a rare blend of imagination, creativity, knowledge and craftsmanship.

Apart from these, he had the honour of presenting his one of the prized collection of paintings - sketch on Street Children of India to the then Hon'ble President of India, Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam in 2006. The painting proudly stands as a souvenir on the walls of Children's Museum in Rashtrapati Bhawan (President's House), New Delhi.



Aktivitäten / Ausstellungen:
Jayaraj has previously conducted his exhibition in Austria, Bangladesh, Indonesia and cities of Chennai, Bangalore, Pondichery and Hyderabad in India and his many paintings and drawings are adorned as private collections in countries like Australia, Britain, Dubai, Germany, Netherlands, Sweden, Sri Lanka, United States of America and India.
