About Santosh Jain

 
 
  • Biography
    I see the same human truths of love, joy, loss, pain, and longing from the remote towns in Kerala to busy streets in Paris. Just like my life, there are stories waiting to be told. To ‘narrate’ a story on my canvas, I collect characters – through my photography, drawings, from acknowledged works of Masters and other expressions I see in my travels. The carefully assimilated ‘cast’ comes together to role play and express my inner concerns while also inviting viewers to come and converse with the narrative. I spend a lot of time, over days and hours end on … constantly reconstructing and building the layers – both digital and by hand with pastels, charcoal and pen, as I deep dive into the work. The process is intuitive; the truth often revealed in the final work. Art for me is a second language. Through Artfinder, I hope to open up my art for more viewers to interpret this visual language and make it a part of their journey layered with personal stories.
