his painting evokes the coastal beauty of a
fishing village. Raibawas born into amiddle‒class
Konkani Muslim community, and his interest in
the history of his community is apparent in paintings
such as these. He creates depth with the moored boats
in the foreground, and the settlements and fishing net
over the horizon. Raiba captures a mood of isolation in
this depiction of a fishing community bound by empty
shores and sea, and a darkening sky that suggests either
the arrival of dusk, or the monsoon.
