Black Painting

Professor in Fine Arts, AMU Aligarh, India. My paintings are in a constant state of evolution. My surrounding and incidents evoke me to look deeper and deeper it indulges me in a microscopic investigation. I perceive the images and structures with its functionality. I juxtapose these images and structure with materials and medium I like to experiment with. These images oscillate with the introspection and my own sense of ambivalence that confronts me at times with some unidentified forms and images which, I later realize on the surface I get involved. Some of My Paintings are the echoes of the political and social subversion by reflecting existential concerns through the images of emaciated dark bodies, gloomy and sagged faces...an interrogation on the existence of man. The texture and hues are dictated by the idea, and concept, but black and white fascinates me the most. I believe that a little sprinkle of soft white with the bold black gives other hews the power to hold.
