Held in Stillness (2026)Acrylic painting by Amrish Malvankar

Held in Stillness reflects a state of calm where the mind is gently supported rather than suspended. Layers of soft grey tonal fields create an open, balanced space, while delicate linear traces suggest the faint presence of thought without disturbance. These marks do not interrupt the stillness; they affirm awareness within it.
The work offers stillness as something sustaining and quietly active. There is no central focus or directional pull, only an evenness that allows attention to rest. Within the larger framework of Mindscape, the painting represents a moment where the mind settles naturally, held in balance between perception and pause
