Paniker.Adimoolam died on 15 January 2008 in Chennai. Adimoolam once said: "Child or middle-aged man, my heart and mind are filled with nature, at every moment. It is a wonderful experience; this love and awe that provoke my ever creative and anxious mind to penetrate the reality that lies beyond our vista. Thus, my canvases mirror my mind's journey through Nature - not as realistic landscapes or seascapes but planes of colors creating an esoteric aura on a transcendental level. For two decades, my concept has been evolving unilaterally with mere technical innovation and a different exploitation of hues.” (en)

Citation :« Homme enfant ou d’âge moyen, mon cœur et mon esprit sont remplis par la nature, à chaque moment. C’est une expérience formidable ; cet amour et cette crainte que provoque mon esprit déjà créatif et anxieux pour pénétrer la réalité qui repose au-delà de notre vision. Ainsi, mes toiles reflètent la journée de mon esprit à travers la Nature -pas de paysages terrestres ou aquatiques aussi réalistes mais des plans créant des couleurs et une atmosphère mystérieuse sur un niveau transcendantal. Pour deux décennies, mon concept a évolué unilatéralement avec une innovation technique simple et une différente exploitation de nuances. » (fr)
