Missisauga, Ontario, 22 April, 2025 - Viraj Ponkshe, celebrated for his innovative ‘ZapinFusion’ style, recently introduced a trio of new masterpieces from his ‘TranceFusion Yantra’ series at the Dacia Art Gallery in Manhattan, New York. These striking creations took center stage at the prestigious Peace and Harmony exhibit, captivating audiences with their bold fusion of energy, spirituality, and modern artistry.

The featured masterpieces—Turbo-jet Yantra, Green Energy Yantra, and TransPlant Yantra—seamlessly blend the two meanings of Yantra: a spiritual energy symbol and a mechanical force of transformation.

TranceFusion Yantras: A Bold Fusion of Art, Spirituality, and Innovation
Each piece in the ‘TranceFusion Yantra’ series channels the dynamic essence of Shakti (energy), reimagined through vibrant, contemporary storytelling with a striking East-meets-West influence:
• Turbo-jet Yantra: This artwork depicts Shakti, the divine feminine energy, soaring on a turbojet-powered eagle. It symbolizes swift intervention from the universe during crises, embodying the idea that peace and harmony can be restored with the speed of answered prayers.
• Green Energy Yantra: A monk-like figure takes center stage in this artwork, holding a rechargeable battery that represents the balance between positive and negative forces, symbolizing Karma. It conveys that true peace and harmony are achieved when we embrace clean, renewable energy that benefits both humanity and the environment.
• TransPlant Yantra: This artwork depicts Shakti riding a sacred bull with giant tractor wheels, symbolizing the unstoppable force that transforms barren land into life-sustaining abundance. It is a prayer for prosperity, wishing that no one goes hungry and that peace and harmony thrive.

“In Indian and ancient East Asian tantric traditions, a ‘Yantra’ is a sacred geometric symbol or tool that channels cosmic energy. In Sanskrit, ‘Yantra’ also means ‘machine.’ I wanted to merge these meanings, transforming the concept into contemporary, energetic art that doesn’t just represent energy but actively generates it,” explains Ponkshe. “Each piece is designed to invoke peace and harmony, especially in today’s turbulent times.”
