Artville Artist Of The Day
Binoy Varghese
Untitled 2
Medium: Acrylic on canvas
Size: 60" x 60"
Year: 2007
Binoy is an artist of few words who is adept at expressing his thoughts and concerns through painting. His earlier work included images of saints, churches and other familiar objects as well as self-portraits depicting torment due to violence prevalent in the society. Making a clear departure in his current work which appears more matured and measured, he creates carefully planned compositions in fine imagery though rotating around the same themes. The continuity of thought and basic tenure of the current work is seen to turn more intense and complex in its detailing as his protagonist often a young girl or a child, with an innocent look, smiling and playful, despite having been uprooted from his/her base or home. The accompanying foliage often in the background and occasionally in the foreground helps to soften the blow and make the alien locale appear more acceptable and adaptable. Social issues close to the artist’s heart are some of the fundamental concerns that are recurrently featured in his colourful and picturesque canvases mostly in large format that impart a distinct humane and compassionate oeuvre.
