Evident in Sreekanth’s development of the visual language is the strong and emphatic resonance to the folk and tribal art tradition. The simplicity of form, the naivety in re n d e ring, t h e vibrant, pulsating and energetic colors and the inherent native power mark it as very regional. The colors are the potent dimension of his works. Employing royal and spirited purples, contemplative blues, passionate reds, nature greens, or kaleidoscopic spectrum particularly in his roosters, one would imagine that they would symbolically be representative of the animal. Rather he creates a paradox using purples and greens for the bull, the browns for the fish and goat, especially the fish that lends itself to kaleidoscopic manipulation of colors and tones. With arbitrary colors, juxtaposed with textile appliqué tradition and schematic reduction of forms to potent symbols Sreekanth's works manifest a decorative sensibility peculiar to group of artists working in Hyderabad and also resonates with the regional cultural derivatives of the Madras art Movement.
