The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance..
 .. Aristotle

Curator’s Pen
As we believe, the emotion comes out from within, so as art. For that, we are in process towards AIM – Art In Me. It is the process to search for the Art in ‘Self’, that is Art within. Here it is a mission to understand the relationships between aesthetics, ethics, and new media art by exhibiting the results of the process, influences, and consequences of aesthetic judgments.
In post modern Indian Art, artists are really searching themselves with their works – I am just encouraging them to break rules to come out with something new, something effective to express the ‘Self’ in any medium with either orthodox or unconventional pattern.
A bunch of contemporary young artists from different states denote the use of distortion and exaggeration for emotional effect to search within, which first surfaced in my mind just after completing the exhibition titled: Gradually Individual. Accordingly I was searching for artists and was studying their mind. Travelled to few states to connect the artists’ mind and their feeling towards the sense of Aim- Art In Me. I have realized that when artists are applying themselves in a stylistic sense, with reference in particular to the use of intense color and forms with agitated brushstrokes or metals, and disjointed space. Rather than a single style, it is a climate that affected all artists here, sometimes with figurative, sometimes with non figurative abstracts, sometimes with some realism too. It’s just the beginning; it is not only in the visual fine arts but also in performing arts – waiting for some fusions in coming days.
As an artist, I’m sure artists have realized that promoting own works can be super awkward. But it’s essential at the same time. Artists may leave some selective parts for the curators, I am there always to support them. Building a following takes time and patience too. Having Social Networking is fine, and using them and other platforms judiciously is a must, but you're going to get lost in the sea of those, unless you strive to create something that is awesome, something that stands out, something that personally resonates with people, something that really makes us want to comment, connect and share.
For audience: Enjoy the art works of the young artists.
For Artists: Keep your Dreams and Hopes intact, do something better what you have done now…

A New Vista in My Creative Journey: Entering Digital Art by Prabuddha Ghosh

A New Vista in My Creative Journey: Entering Digital Art in 2025 by Prabuddha Ghosh A fter more than thirty-five years of dedicated engagement with photography and nearly two decades of sustained practice in digital photography, I have now entered a new and significant phase of my creative journey: the field of Digital Art. This transition has emerged organically through reflection, experimentation and encouragement from individuals whose guidance and faith have been deeply meaningful to me. In particular, I wish to acknowledge the constant motivation and mentorship of my friend and senior artist, Shri Atul Padiaji of Vadodara, Gujarat, whose encouragement gave me the confidence to explore this medium with greater seriousness and depth. Equally important has been the role of my younger brother, Shri Jayanta Khan of Kolkata, who, through his persistent inspiration over more than a year, urged me to take this decisive step and begin a new chapter in my artistic life. I also believe t...

Sunflower: The Luminous Axis of Art, Spirit and Contemporary Consciousness By Prabuddha Ghosh

Sunflower: The Luminous Axis of Art, Spirit and Contemporary Consciousness By Prabuddha Ghosh The sunflower remains one of the most evocative subjects in visual culture—bridging art, spirituality and lived experience. More than a botanical form, it operates as a symbol of light, temporality and inner alignment, continually reinterpreted across cultures and artistic movements. Native to the Americas, sunflowers were cultivated by indigenous communities for food, medicine and pigments used in craft and visual expression. Introduced to Europe in the 16th century, they gradually evolved from utilitarian crops into ornamental and symbolic forms. Their heliotropic nature—turning toward the sun—established them as universal emblems of devotion, vitality and spiritual seeking. In India, the sunflower resonates with the energy of Surya, embodying abundance and the eternal rhythm of life, death and rebirth. Across cultures, it has symbolized courage, longevity, gratitude and optimism. Even i...

The Unwritten Verse: Tagore’s Soul in Color and Form by Prabuddha Ghosh (Commemorating the 164th birth anniversary of Rabindranath Tagore)

The Unwritten Verse: Tagore’s Soul in Color and Form (Commemorating the 164th birth anniversary of Rabindranath Tagore) by Prabuddha Ghosh Rabindranath Tagore , fondly and universally known as Gurudev , is widely celebrated as a Nobel laureate in literature. However, what remains lesser known is his profound and unexpected entry into the world of visual art during the later years of his life. While primarily recognized for his poetry, prose, songs, drama, novels, and philosophical thought, Tagore’s foray into painting revealed yet another dimension of his boundless creativity. Although he began this artistic journey relatively late, his artwork resonates with an intensity and vividness that are both enigmatic and deeply human. His artistic expressions are far from mere historical artifacts—they are living, breathing creations that continue to captivate the contemporary imagination. Here's a closer look at why Tagore’s art remains remarkably relevant today: Tagore’s paintings ...
