Biswajit Das, an accomplished artist born in 1982 in Halisahar, West Bengal, has been nominated as an exhibitor for the 'AURA 2024 - International Art & Photography Exhibition'. This esteemed event, organized by Retro Kolkata Magazine, is scheduled to be held at Nazrul Tirtha, Newtown, Kolkata, from January 13 to January 21, 2024. The exhibition will feature an art segment from January 13 to January 15 and a photography segment from January 18 to January 20, culminating in a felicitation ceremony on January 21.
Das's artistic journey is fueled by a deep curiosity for visual engagement and a passion for exploring the nuances of human expressions and gestures through portraits and figurative representation. His unique approach involves using a variety of elements such as colors, lines, textures, and contours on his canvas to express the impact of sound on human life. This exploration of sound encompasses its diverse forms — from noise and howls to honks and tinkles — and its psychological impact on people.
Taking inspiration from the strength and subtlety of sound, including its silent aspects, Das aims to create conceptual compositions that invite both himself and viewers to delve into the thematic depth of his work. Over the past decade, his work has been exhibited, appreciated, criticized, and collected both nationally and internationally, earning him a reputable place in various galleries across India.
Biswajit Das's nomination for 'AURA 2024' acknowledges his significant contribution to the art world and highlights his innovative approach to blending auditory elements with visual art. His participation in this prestigious event is expected to offer a unique perspective to the audience, further solidifying his position as a prominent and influential figure in the Indian art scene.
