Event Details : 'Visual Vocabulary' an exhibition of paintings and photographs by Biplab Muzibar Rahaman.
Artist's Comment : I do photography and paintings, both kind of works since I am out of my college. I had my couple shows, solo and group in Calcutta and Delhi. This is my 4th solo show. I am going to keep two kind of works. Paintings, where I am using photography. Actually these paintings are mixed media work. Xerox ink print transfer and acrylic on canvas. I am doing these kind of experimental paintings sins 2007. Photographs are high resolution quality inject digital print on archival paper, limited edition of 4 each. Print size 24"x24" Canvas size 48"x48" and 24"x24" These paintings are little bit illustrative along with its design values. Some of them symmetrical. As we are physically and main color is black contrast with white. As we simply see things are, the facts are. Good or bad, wrong or right. But as the title signifies, VISUAL VOCABULARY, that's reflects within imagination and the reality. Nothing is constant here. We are the every little icons of moving stream of the civilization, Which is a question mark now in front of us. A very little moment or event could become a great voice. The present time, I look at as a very contrast monologue of our life. Lots of fear, insecurity around us as many 'designed' moments are too. And are very contrast and vibrant. Even suddenly photography is becoming a different voice beyond its conventional use by using technology. I am part of that and do not deny it, never, can not escape. As you see, the photographs are changed color, a very different than the original one. I used a symbol with every print. Symbol from the known world, which is very odd and meaningless. But I tried to put them together finding a link and harmony. A cow looking at the camera, color like swimming pool blue and a big red dot. No meaning but there is. It asks a question, and the story comes out of it. Because we love to make story out of everything, sometimes too much. Imagination and facts are there at the same moment. That is a freedom of the viewer. Usually the painting should not be storytelling object, because it loses its own dignity and becomes an illustration. I tried to avoid that point.
