Artist's Profile
|
|
Fawad Tamkanat |
|
Fawad is a promising young artist from Hyderabad. Throughout his career as an artist, he has strived to develop and then perfect a visual vocabulary that he can use to communicate with his viewers. And this language, that he uses to take on peoples' minds, has nothing to do with society, religion or politics, but, quite blatantly, is all about his own personal fixations. Fixations that include those with time, and one's place in the general scheme of things. Today, Tamkanat experiments with several different media and surfaces, diversifying to include those like Water colours, Acrylic, Etching drypoint and Tarpaulin in his oeuvre.
