Concept Note

At a glance, nature often seems to be existing in total disarray, but if looked into with empathy the wonders of nature then open up with boundless hidden harmonies. The present solo show of Pabitra Saha showcases a few such thoughtful compositions where nature with its inherent display of rhythm and balance plays a pivotal role. As a Graduate of GCAC, Kolkata, from the late ''80s Pabitra has been in his art practice for a long now with several exhibitions, workshops, etc to his credit. But what captures the onlooker most is his intimate, naive simplicity of expression. His compositions are a compilation of geometric forms and lines with somber colors creating a cohesive structure as a whole. His love for warm colors, spaced with the graphic arrangement of forms be it of huts, hills, fields, or rivers, invokes a Zen-like sensibility—capturing the essence of symmetry within the parlance of asymmetry. This often nourishes the viewer with a deeper insight into the abundance of nature. So, in today’s world of anarchy and chaos, his paintings offer a vision of tranquillity and peace-- a rare feat of creative exercise.
