    Style :
    Known for his skills in portraiture, his subject matter comes in a mix of landscape and a photo-realistic rendition. The colourful imagery on paper and canvas, often in a large format, focuses on issues of displacement, capturing posing protagonists, often women and children, in their newfound domains against a background of made-up environment of thick foliage interspersed with bright flowers. Their socio-political and gender realities are highlighted by the dress they wear or the sharpness or softness of the background and foliage in the work. Binoy has participated in several national and international art camps and workshops. His work has been exhibited by well-known galleries in solo and group shows held in different Indian cities and abroad including Canada, USA, Singapore, Hong Kong, Dubai, Thailand, London, South Africa, Denmark, Italy and Dhaka amongst others.
