Arindam Sinha’s recent work delves into the nuanced experiences of middle-class families, both in their physical realities and mental landscapes. His practice centres around the concept of mimesis, reflecting the ordinary yet profound struggles of daily life. Through his art, he explores themes of isolation, a sentiment that resonates universally, especially in light of the pandemic and its aftermath. This period, marked by uncertainty and survival challenges, has inspired him to examine these dynamics at an intimate, microscopic level. As a visual artist, his subjects are deeply personal and often autobiographical. His watercolours on paper depict a world of isolation, filtered through the lens of a common man’s experiences. Employing a subdued colour palette and mysterious compositions, he creates a compelling interplay between the tangible and intangible—between the physical and emotional realms. Frequently, his works feature self-portraits and portrayals of his family members, emphasizing the personal connection to his subject matter. Arindam is particularly interested in exploring how periods of isolation impact middle-class families in various situations. As a member of such a family himself, he draws inspiration from the daily stories, struggles, and mental health challenges faced by individuals within this socio-economic group. He believes that art and life are intrinsically connected, and through his work, he seeks to uncover new perspectives on mental health and emotional resilience. By engaging with personal narratives and imaginative scenarios, Sinha aims to deepen his understanding of human experiences. His focus on the layered complexities of middle-class life not only allows him to grow as an artist but also fosters a dialogue about the often-overlooked aspects of mental health. At present, his artistic practice is dedicated to exploring the diverse conditions and emotional states of middle-class families, using these reflections as a medium for self-exploration and broader social commentary.
