R Magesh

The work explores the constant tension between the aspect of light and dark, good andbad, relating the contemporary to the historic and the sacred to the profane, thesignificance and history of painting as a system of representation, exposing how the materiality of paint can carry and convey meaning. Necessitating a slowed-down process of looking, the intensely worked surfaces are delicate and luminous, expanding and reforming found imagery through studied formal approaches. The work weaves multiple narratives that are based on pre existing imagery culled from a variety of sources, including early renaissance painting, film stills, personal photography, historical events and news

The sparse vegetation,the scattered float sam,the stumps of long-dead trees,the pebbly beach are the markers that highlights the immense space. In a large work the land, water and the sky troika play tricks with the eye – is it water or a mirage shimmering in the afternoon heat? so typical of the extensive flatlands of Kutch. One cannot miss the tiny hut,the only human

Soumen Das

My artistic process unfolds in layers, starting with pastel scribbles forming geometric patterns. These initial sketches undergo a transformation through varied brushwork using opaque and transparent colors, incorporating diverse marks and linear details. This process continues until the artwork reaches a point that resonates with my vision.  Typically, I engage with multiple paintings simultaneously. They evolve gradually, with me moving back and forth between them. Some pieces take precedence, while others wait for further exploration. Throughout this journey, my fascination with the structured linearity of urban landscapes and the play of transparency and luminosity permeates the
