Subhendu looks at the life as an endless stream of images and ecstacy. Sometimes those are associated with nature, and sometimes his thoughts plunge into abstraction. In his belief, life is also a stream of melancholy and dreams, where the pain for existence can be narrated as a very close phenomenon to pleasure. Beauty haunts the mind and life becomes an exclusive quest for art. Sometimes mind looks forward with a leap from mundaneness of day-by-day existence. It transcends the limits of lights and shadows, objects and its shadows or co-existence and solitude. Here lies Subhendu’s craft, visually abstract but at the same time concrete with bold lines, wash technique or depicting his love for nature.
