BIOGRAPHY
Born in Sylhet, Bangladesh, December, 1982. Has lived and resided in North America since the age of eight. Considers art to be a means of communication between men, a reflection of the self, and ideas consumed by the mind.
a few words:
At this time of transition, my instincts are more certain than my belief...am I afraid of things? NO... Art has allowed me to see life as a means to look within myself, discover, and grapple with issues pertaining to professional ethics and practices. Having graduated with a Masters in Fine Arts, I have grown to become an individual, and a visual artist who has developed a critical eye and strong conceptual ability, and to whom the process of creating is constant and cathartic. My enthusiasm to live and breath art has been strengthened as a result of my conscience delving into undercurrents of subject, form, and content.
I shall continue to pursue experiences in physical environmental encounters, remain a romantic within the performantive state of mind, and explore the crossroads of idea and habit, calculation and probability, provoked observations, and worlds out of time. Although abstract and poetic, my work has been consistently committed to cultural identity and combine both strength and sensitivity that are imbued with a marked autobiographical significance; the way the self is divided between both inner experience and outer experience, as well as being divided by communal ties and individual longings.
