About the Item

Subrata Biswas - Untitled - 11.5 x 8.25 Inches ( unframed size ) Dry Pastel, Charcoal on Paper , 2008 ( Unframed All in Delivered Price ) Style : The motive of a child in its most basic form appears quite repeatedly in the works of Subrata Biswas. The elementary human form representing the child complements innocence, one generally associated with a child. But artistically, what is more interesting is how the sculptor made the simplistic form emerge by reconciling elements of both folk and classical form. It is more of a language than a style in which Subrata creates his narratives with the child and accessories associated with the child. About the Artist : Born : 1972.

Awards : 2000 - Lalitkala Award, New Delhi. 2000 - West Bengal State Academy award. 2000 - Presently attached as a Guest Lecturer, Sculpture Dept. Rabindra Bharati University, Kolkata. About his art work : Subrata Biswas’s three sculptures ‘Think Green’, ‘Amigo’ and ‘City Bred’ a conscious selection of elements of folk forms simultaneously reflect formal economy and a statement on the rural-urban binary. I say this particularly because the elements of the urban remains camouflaged in these animated folk forms. The works are framed within the contexts of the simple and the complex. There is a fantastic element in the works which is brought about by transforming the motifs of a fish, kite, an animal etc into larger than life forms. It is needless to say that all motifs are selected by the artist and are composed in such a manner so that the sculptural presence of each form gets enhanced.
