Description

This vibrant portrait by Rabin Mandal pulses with raw energy, layering bold strokes of red, blue, green, and yellow across a stylized human form. The figure’s closed eyes and exaggerated features suggest introspection or emotional intensity, while the textured brushwork evokes a sense of inner turbulence. Set against earthy browns and oranges, the composition creates a powerful contrast between the figure’s vivid presence and the grounded, almost primal backdrop. Mandal’s expressionist style transforms the human body into a vessel of psychological and political tension, reflecting his deep engagement with post-independence Indian identity.
