Artist’s Statement
____________________
My art practice is reflections of the society around me. The works are rather emotional than objective.
The transparency is a very important part of my picture, as it makes the works subtle as well as vulnerable. Thus In my work, the treatment, color, support etc. cumulatively create a narrative of its own. A narrative of my emotion, my uncertainty of existence, political instability and struggling life of people around me. In my work, I have used my writings, I believe that these are very much an integral part of the works, as it talks about my private self and thus makes my pictures more intense, more real, more close to myself that tells many untold stories of me, about me.
I also like some sort of ambiguity in my art practice because in reality you can see a thing but you don’t know this thing or this situation can make many more angles which are totally unknown to us. So, I’m dealing with some ambiguity or little bit of dark humor in create my work.
Let the question arise in people’s minds. I want people to be aware of their own existence and experience. To me, there is no such thing as a definite outcome of Art practice, and it is neither the demand nor the need for my Art practice.
In my work, personal tragedy is often inseparable from societal oppression, are equally fluid. And in this way, my personal feelings are being documented in my works.
These works are like dark humor about my surroundings society and politics. Where an ambiguity works as a metaphor of social discrimination. Where everyone knows about the consequences, even then we have to do the same thing repeatedly because we don't have any other choices. Where the destruction becomes a game for someone else, and where nothing is obvious. Still we are acting to keep ourselves well with certain materialistic needs.
Being in a middle class, I know these people very well. So I want to reach out to the elite classes of society on behalf of them, through my art works. Because, they should be aware of these people’s life struggles.
I want to create wounds in people's minds through my work, I know I can't change anything through my work, yet I feel responsible to these people. I am responsible to the time around me, that’s why I want to keep a track of present time in my work.
