KP Reji



K.P.Reji 
To move the mountain 
Oil on canvas, 60/60 inch
2008
Reji’s paintings exude a matter of fact quality. His use of bold, slightly rounded figuration constructs a naïve style reminiscent of Gauguin. Despite - or perhaps because of - their apparent simplicity, his paintings are enigmatic and the motifs he engenders are difficult to decipher. His work is multifaceted and complex in its analysis of the individual’s relationship to his external environment. Often political in inflection, his canvases explore the connection between psychological states of mind and socio-political behavior.
