Prasanta Acharjee
"In my minimalist practice, i seek to distill the essence of my subjects-musicians, Kolkata rickshaw pullers, Varanasi ghats-into a vibrant language of bold colors and geometric forms. My work is a celebration of the simplicity found in complexity, where each shape and hue is meticulously chosen to evoke the soul of the scene. By stripping away the superflous and focusing on fundamental elements, i aim to capture the raw energy and intimate stories of diverse lives and places. The interplay of form and color in my paintings creates a dynamic, yet restrained dialogue, inviting viewers to experiemce a profound connection through the purity of abstraction."
