East or West, Bengal is the best!

Last year, I was invited by my friend and photographer,  Anil,  to be featured in a photo book,  A Month, 6 Artists and a Book that he was putting together for the Solo Photo Book Project that he’d signed up for.  I not only got to experience a photo shoot but also saw him work [...]

Choker dekha Praner katha

My first Solo exhibition ended earlier tonight.  This whole week has been exhilirating.    The Opening on the 29th was very well received.  I was touched by the speech made by Radha Chakravarty, Shahid Kabir, Baby Maudud and my husband (on my behalf).  Each in their own way went a long way in making the [...]

An Invitation

Do stop by if you’re in town.

A Solo Show

I am busy with preparations for a solo exhibition planned for the end of May and will be back to my normal posting frequency in June ‘09.  I hope you will stop by again then.

A hundred thousand hits!

Tonight, as I sleep, Maya will cross a hundred thousand hits and I’m delighted.  Thank you!  Your visits have kept me blogging! This blog was created on Dec 10, 2005 and the first post,  A journey begins, was back dated to about the time I made my first painting in recent years, July ‘04.  It had [...]

Lost in thought

Exciting times.  I’ve enrolled for a short term course at UODA under the guidance of Shahid Kabir, renowned Bangladeshi Printmaker and Painter.  For a while at least, the finished pieces getting on to this blog are likely to be prints. This piece while signed is one of those where I’ve every intention of fiddling around with [...]

Mechanical Fantasy

The opportunity to participate in a Printmaking workshop fell into my lap earlier this year and I’m glad I didn’t let it pass me by. This workshop was organised by the Britto Arts Trust and was a little different in format from the earlier two. There were two coordinators but there was no person conducting [...]

Je ne veux pas travailler

We have many street vendors in Dhaka.  This flower seller’s expression caught my attention.  It’s turned out to be more aggressive mostly because of what I read into the situation and the stories that I built around him which kept me occupied when painting. Using oils after a break.  The first painting has yet to be [...]

DSfDFs : Portrait Challenge

I’ve been a fan of Karin Jurick’s paintings for a while now and have been lurking around her new blog Different Strokes from Different Folks since it started a few months ago.  But it was a portrait challenge that gave me the push to jump in and also the fact that we had 3 [...]

Back on track

This may go through several iterations yet but I’m happy to be back on track and doing what I like best – painting portraits.    The Asian Biennale has come to an end and today we went and picked up our paintings.  It felt good to have “Stop or Else!” safely back at home.     “Responsibilities” 12″ [...]

Press Coverage

I apologize for blowing my own trumpet. I was too rushed/stressed before to put up the invite for my first solo exhibition held at Gallery Chitrak, Dhaka from May 29th - June 5th, 2009. Decided to share some press coverage that I received - Choker dekha, Praner katha
