Neoflora series no.2 120 x 84 x 2 cm acrylic paint and acrylic ink on canvas limited edition of 20 born in 1986 in agra, india lives & works in new delhi, india sumit claims to have been experimental since childhood. Be it drawing, sketching, cooking, painting or photography, he always liked to do something no one has ever thought of, by adding his signature element to the task. To achieve this, sumit creates his own painting tools to go with the techniques he thinks of. “i usually discover different techniques to paint and construct my own tools to put the ideas into action. I pick up a theme and make a series of paintings on them. When the technique gets repetitive, i wait for another inspiration to strike, and i move onto the next series,” professes sumit. He does not have any ‘patented style’ as he terms it to be mere repetition and limits and artist’s creativity. He adds on saying that his works are not entirely skill based as a skill needs to be perfected by doing it repeatedly; “my art is more about the excitement of how beautiful strokes and patterns can emerge from experimentation, i believe in having fun in my studio and my art is end result of it.” he also believes in impulsive acts of making art and its surprising results; “for me it is not about the number of hours spent in making one artwork or extreme skills of perfection. Its mostly impulsive with a playful skill that comes along involving certain movements, measures, materials and tools which leads to a satisfying end result.” education msc.
