An honest persuit to spread my wings n fly high
To reach out to the rainbow in the sky
And colour lives, yours n mine
It definitely describes me. A lover of bright colours even before I ever took a brush in my hand. I can’t seem to have enough of colours around me. It’s all about splashes of yellow, orange, red n blue…….all the colours that make me happy, make me feel I want to dance and sing for the sheer joy of it.
As long as I can remember, I have always loved to create with my hands.
Basically a self taught artist, I nevertheless learnt a few tricks from some of my esteemed teachers every once in a while. Their blessings have helped me reach where I am today. But I have no doubts that I have a long long way to go before I feel completely satisfied…… before I reach that level where I shall find utter bliss (if there is such a thing ).
But till then, I wield my brush n knives, squeeze out brightest of the bright colours and continue to paint stories on the canvas……for ever n ever.
To sum up all the above in two words, it describes me. JYOTI CHORDIA. Born in 1975, and having spent many years in different states of Bengal, Tamil Nadu, USA and now in Udaipur, Rajasthan, I strive to live up to the beauty of all these places I have been in.
My paintings are a part of me. Hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed creating them.
THE IDEA BEHIND MY WORK –
The object of my paintings is not to focus on one central character or idea. The whole point is to take the whole painting as a complete ONE. The lines connect the one to the one. They flow endlessly. Sometimes in never ending circles, sometimes aimlessly moving around n out to show interdependency. They intertwine and flow in harmony n chaos …. As and how you take it.
To me, these lines show my need to connect with my feelings. They give me a sense of purpose, a sense of urgency to find myself….. and to loose myself
I leave it up to the onlooker to connect with the lines and to feel the flow of emotions it invokes
तो चलो, करे साहस उड़ान भरने के लिए
आसमान के सारे रंग अपने आंचल में समेटने के लिए
