Gouranga Beshai | Summer Noon-2 | Mixed Media on Paper | 22 x 28 inches
In this evocative mixed media composition, the artist captures a quiet moment of introspection. A young woman sits curled into herself, her arms gently folded over her knees, as though holding her own thoughts close. Her lowered gaze and softened features create a sense of stillness—an intimate pause suspended in time.
The fluid lines move freely across the surface, blending charcoal-like strokes with earthy washes of red, brown, and muted green. The background remains suggestive rather than defined, allowing emotion to take precedence over setting. There is a tenderness in the posture, a vulnerability in the silence, and yet a quiet strength in her presence.
The expressive contours and layered textures reveal the artist’s intuitive hand—balancing abstraction with figuration. The work feels deeply personal, almost like a memory unfolding on paper, where form and feeling merge into one poetic visual language.
Born in 1968 in West Bengal, this self taught artist shows a great influence of Hemendra Mukherjee in his depiction of the female figures. As a realist artist his usage of colour too brings to life the figurative study in detail. Gouranga has exhibited his works through several solo shows in Kolkata, and Mumbai and participated in many annual shows over the years in Kolkata and Delhi and participated in innumerable groups’ shows in Kolkata, New Delhi, and Hyderabad.
He has attended many camps as follows: Several Art Camps in Kolkata, Hyderabad, Bhopal, Sikkim; Art Auction in Aid of Tsunami victims at Calcutta Swimming Club, 2005. He is the recipient of several awards as mentioned: Academy of Fine Arts, Kolkata Atul Bose’s Award & Academy’s Award, 1999; Reflection of Another Day (RAD) Aranya Award 2003; Vicharmanch, Indra Dugar Samman (Awards) 2005; Govt. of Andhra Pradesh Tourism Development Corporation (APTDC) Awards 2012; Colours Land Art Academy Certificate of Excellence 2014.
