Manas Biswas

ABOUT ARTIST MANAS BISWAS

Born in 1965 in Basirhat, West Bengal, Manas Biswas completed his art education from the Government College of Art and Craft, Kolkata. 

Biswas would like to label himself an abstract painter who uses everyday objects as inspiration, yet removes them from their informed reality. Thus, while the human form is evident in his works, it remains aloof or alienated. In a similar vein, Biswas frequently uses classic studies from nature, but rather than rendering them to truthful perfection, he uses his brush and colours to create an abstract piece which to the viewer is a sight that is seen and yet not observed.
