Here you can see a brief about my painting , my bio- data, and some recent paintings.A BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO MY RECENT PAINTINGS



During the period of training my works were mostly the reflectionof the city life, the aspiration and dreams of the urban middle class living in a molt-cultural and multi-lingual society. Those days I crated the works like ‘ back to the city’, ‘nagorik’ etc., by mixed media.
To develop the concept I have been traveling historical, and culturally significant places and try to conceptualize the togetherness of living and non-living objects and a sense of mystery. Things and particular colour encompassed me, thus my creative mind and feelings is blend. Through I have social, ritual relation with my surroundings, I would like to search there hidden relations of mine in my works. It is known there a relation among the living and non- living beings in nature. I saw a rhythm with the costume, ornaments, happiness, sorrow and habits of the rural people, I is wonderful to me when I inhale those things then, I express my feelings of love through my visual art work. Some times ‘ composition ‘ starts from my dream, which leads to reality by using any conventional and non- conventional skills. Here art evokes with emotion, braveness of mind and necessary experience. A mysterious spiritual height appears in my recent works to illuminate the images. Thus a series of paintings came out which were titled as ‘ conceptual –scape’. It happened in my sub conscious and not on any stereotype conventional norms, they are unique on there own right as my feelings are.

We know the nature has a universal approach that I would like to share. I visited Ajanta and Ellora and surrounding caves where I saw yellowish stone in roof and ceiling and walls in cave perhaps that was a meditation room and yellow colour also represents knowledge and intelligibility. Where the ancient highly skilled sculptor did purposely or not is not a vital matter to me at that moment, but I was intoxicated by the environment of Ellora. So I expressed my feelings through there ‘ mind scapes” for that purpose I have to travel more.
In my works human figure and other objects some times signify a character sometimes not, simultaneously they are used to balance the paintings. The motives are also used to decorate the painted surfaces. Colour used in big space come balance, blue for communication and knowledge or red for empowerment. I forgot my which at action yet the final eventuality of unconscious effort does bare conspicuously my nature and attitude.

My pleasure gets multiplied if my art sooths the sole of the viewers and comfort their mind and eye. Somewhere my works have got flavors of spirituality and miniature of ancient Indian art.

During my art training under Sri, Shyamal Dutta Roy my works were mostly the reflection of my city life, gradually I grown a solid attraction on nature, I have been traveling historical and interesting places and try to conceptualize the togetherness of living and non – living object in nature mystery. Nature has a universal approach that I would like to share and though we have some inheritance relation but I feel there is something more among them. It is wonderful to me when I inhale these things, then express them the composition of painting start from dream which leads to reality with emotion, braveness of mind and necessary experience . Thee is an illuminati happening and series of painting came out by title – conceptual scape .. whenever I visited any where I intoxicated with atmosphere so, I in my work human figure and other object sometime carry meaning sometimes not, but balance and decoration and character of that particular places in there. Somewhere spirituality evokes from mind.

PAPER CLIPPINGS ABOUT MY ART

( ALL ARE COLLECTED FROM ENGLISH DAILY ONLY)

The painting of Anindy Roy come across as a breath of fresh air in an environment overrun with obscure and cryptic compositions. his works presents images of life, love and faith that offer an insight into his liberal and gentle attitude. Combining fantasy with reality his works give perspective to the tiny fraction of time that exists between moments of sentience and sub-consciousness. Evoked with emotion and spirit, his art is ultimately born of experience. Romance , adventure and excitement also figure in his works and are clearly a result of the imaginative wanderings of his creative mind .Full of action, drama and colour, Roy’s paintings invite the viewer on an enchanting artistic journey. --- THE TELEGAPH, CALCUTTA 10 JULY 2006

His art evokes emotion, braveness of mind and the necessary experience of the soul. --
DELHI TIMES, 15 MAY 2005

The landscapes of Anindya Roy – so many nature abstracted works with figurative images merging smoothly -- arkay, AFTERNOON, MUMBAI 11 NOV.2002
The city its varied cultural life is the artist;s main theme .- THE STATESMAN,CAL.,30 APR.’2K

Anindya;s creations have a surreal and haunting quality. ---- BOMBAY TIMES, 5 AUG.1999

Roy;s city figurative are affective fantasies. These translate our usual daytime experience from the urban setting into night-time wonder. ( on mixed media work)
--- Keshav malik, THE SUNDAY TIMES, NEW DELHI 15 JUNE 1997

Roy showed claustrophobic cityscapes in which buildings are portrayed as crowded heaps of battered rectangles blackened with sooty, grimy smudges of conte. The artist is tempted to include human figure in them. --- Rita Dutta THE E.T. ,CALCUTLTLA,21JUNE 1997

Anindya builds his rather fantastic images around the nostalgic, melancholic associations that Calcutta evokes among a number of Bengal artist. working in mixed ;media mainly acrylic and conte.---For Anindya the problem perhaps is not technical proficiency which he has, but one of putting aside the overwhelming vocabulary of mentor and arriving at his own language if not a uique,then at least an individual vision. –Gayatri Sinha,THE HINDU,DELHI,23 MAY 1997

Anindya played freely with lines trying to develop a dark human drama .His use of black in particular was exceptionally good. – Sankar Majumder, THE STATESMAN,20 JUNE 1997

Anindya displayed grater command of his medium, his treatment of the surfaces was noteworthy as was the pick of his themes. – R.S.Jadav,THE HINDUSTAN TIMES 30 MAY 1997

For a self taught artist, living away from the urban hub Anindya has acquired a maturity of style not entirely expected. You wouldn’t have guessed that he hasn’t been to art school. Roy tends to add self-conscious semi-surreal images like floating animals of human figure above.
---- R.Dutta,THE ECONOMIC TIMES, CALCUTTA ,20 MAY 1995

Roy’s works are focused mostlyupon the urban scene that he is surrounded by .The use of symbos already deeply a part of our psyche is used to intensify this gloom.
Bharati Chaturvadi,INDIAN EXPRESS,NEW DELHI ,24 JULY 1995

Anindya roy shares the typical Calcutta language of art,Dream is a mojor characteristic feature of his works. ------ M.Ramachandran,THE STATESMAN,DELHI,24 JULY 1995
