Irregular

Going through some art movements, which I first came across when I joined the School of Fototechnik, Delhi in Sep 2005 and were later stimulated by doing sketch studies of different subjects over visits to the Tripoli Medina and the Baroque city of Valletta.

The French word for “irregular” Baroque was applied to a style in art and architecture very fashionable in the 17th century and distinguished by extravagant forms and ornamentation which became so elaborate as to verge on the grotesque.
