The empathy for the garden on earth, cleaner air, and mother Earth figures prominently in Param's imagery. The beauty and bounty of nature resonate through his photomontage, which presents the world as a pilgrimage, where people come and go. But the earth and the environment, his work seems to urge, must be sustained for future generations. The characters and visuals he presents, remarkable for their spontaneity and soulful silence, and the artist's emotional rapport with his subjects and various situations, penetrate the viewer's innate feelings, beyond what the naked eye can see. Many of his impressions are inspired by Japanese aesthetics in combination with Indian yoga culture, with references to nature.
