Sutanu PanigrahiSutanu Panigrahi’s paintings are slices of life; an introspective glimpse into a sight seen too many times before but never quite noticed. Seeking inspiration from the works of Colombian writer, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Panigrahi fuses a touch of magic with the mundane which results in the creation of a liminal space that adheres as well as transgresses rules.

Sunil YawalikarA teacher by profession, Sunil Yawalikar has been inspired by his students. His close ties to his rural background find overt manifestation in his paintings which uphold how lasting an effect our childhood has on us.

Raj MajiArt is no more a separate entity than the being inside who always wants to be in the creative joy of eternal bliss.

Pradip SauIt is the search for what can atleast partly be attained by being detached from all the material aspects is at the centre of Pradip’s paintings.

Biswajit DasCuriosity for visual engagement is the driving force of Biswajit’s work. He mostly loves to work on gestures through portraits and figurative representation. He is working on sound and its impact on human life through gestural reactions. He prefers his canvas to express the space with variety of elements like colours, lines, textures and contours to showcase the wide possibilities of the sound (in its various forms, noise, howl, honk, tinkle etc.) to have an impact on us. He takes sound, as an inspiration, as he feels it has great strength as silence to move us psychologically. This particular quality would help both him and the viewers to absorb his conceptual compositions.
