About the Item

A wonderful work by the very well lauded by the indiancontemporary artist Shipra Bhattacharya. Shipra has a wonderful skill to paint meticulously enchantingly as well Attractively. Shipra Bhattacharya - 25 x 25 inches (unframed size) - Acrylic on canvas Inclusive of shipment in a roll form. Style : Shipra, is a leading contemporary mid career artist of India. Shipra Bhattacharya’s work has dealt with women’s issues in a confrontational, yet subtle manner. While the female figure forms a central part of her work, it is more the inner consciousness of these women that the artist draws on, using bold yet soft colors and smooth brushwork. There is a mystery about each of her female protagonists – about the want of something more than what meets the eye. In her recent works, the female body becomes a site or vehicle, backing the viewer, but tattooed with icons and images that voice both fulfillment and desire. Bhattacharya’s work borders on the sensuous. It is far from portraiture, and yet there exists an endearingly real character to each of her women. The artist combines with ease bright, bold colors and soft, curving strokes, rendering each of her paintings a mesmerizing paradox. About the Artist and her work : Born : 1954 in Kolkata.
