Nityam Singha Roy’s artworks are inspired from real life. The artist tells how the innumerous struggles that he faced find a place in his canvas
It is not necessary that we learn something from a person. Sometimes our life and situation teaches us more. A better example for this situation is artist Nityam Singha Roy — the struggle of his early life taught him to enjoy the pain of separation. This pain helped him to create a new person as a painter. Each of Roy’s paintings reflect his journey which he has always searched for. His canvas becomes his language while he paints his story.
When we take a look at his paintings, we can easily find out that his artworks have the sensory philosophical images of the world. Roy’s paintings depict the suffering of displacement of life. His art is his language which mix up the sensory knowledge and dreams with the different shades of colours and reveals an expressing universe. His paintings weave the story of hope in this time of fear and violence. One can find these stories in the form of birds, horses and universe. The language of his art makes life more beautiful.
Roy has exhibited his paintings in Edinburg Art Fair, UK, which got interest of many art lovers. The mythological stories which the artist heard from his mother during his childhood led him to create his own fantasy world. The human forms in his paintings are Radha, Krishna and Meera.
According to the artist, “The most interesting part of human figure is the face where I think that I can show every sentiment of love and joy. I gradually develop my temperament to reflect the rasa of their leela to create more powerful and positive image.” He further added, “My painting reflects the love which I have always searched for. My canvas becomes my language while I paint my story. I have spent a large amount of time perfecting my painting since the subjects with all the form are always present in my dreams.”
The style which he follows is the usage of red colour often in the form of a dot on the canvas. It depicts the veritable symbol of passion to heighten the impact of the love mood to balance the energy forces of the converging forms.
As an artist, Roy observes and paints the subtle, beauty of the human form, and as such the light of a sacramental vision seeps in his work in celebration and praise. “This work is not designed to arouse the horrors of life but to see the beauty in human bonding,” he concluded.
