The group has put up an exhibition at Gallery Artmosphere.

“All of us met here at Baroda where we had come to learn painting. Soon we formed this group and now we hold exhibitions together. Together is the key word for together we bring so many different streams for interaction,” says Sachin. When asked if it is hard to pursue dreams, Sachin says, “They are. My family had kind of given up on me but my father, who is not literate, gave me just one advise: do what you want to.” To this, Pranab adds, “My family is still confused about what I do,” while Anirban’s family, “has kind of compromised for after all it was they who had advised me that if I wanted to lead a luxurious life then I should join a job but if I wanted to be become human I should do something creative.”

And this reflects in their words. For Sachin, “the charcoal paintings that I have brought here are basically how my village sees a city. These are paintings that I have made during the darkness of the night while my subjects are urban style is rural.” Anirban adds, “For me, people are living just for the sake of it. We are bombed, robbed, looted humiliated but still we do not speak up. My paintings thus show only the lower part of the body where we are simply stagnant.”

For Pranab, meanwhile, “my works are ideas that generate from my conscious and unconscious mind. My paintings are like personal diaries. I paint what I see and feel around me.”
