Series: DAZZLING COTE VERMEILLE

Imaginative south of France

Among the magnificent regions that shape France, the south of France enjoys a unique lighting that enhances its landscapes. This play of light, both intense and secret, gives this land a special aura, where each relief seems to carry within it a living fresco.

Sen was captivated by Occitania and the Mediterranean coast, where he drew, with feverish emotion, inspiration nourished by nature, the landscapes, and the incessant ballet of birds. Like many painters before him, he felt in these lands a deep connection with the roots of the world, an unbreakable bond between material and imagination.

Having spent some good time in this area, he has painted a series in the theme of Dazzling Cote Vermeille through the window of his abstract with hidden figuratives style.His painting, always imbued with creativity, explores this fusion by concealing, beneath shimmering abstraction, hidden figures, like fragments of reality buried in colour. Through this approach, he invites us to enter his universe, where each canvas becomes the guardian of a secret to be discovered.

 

INDIA’S BLOODY INDEPENDENCEIN 1947

When India was partitioned 1947 to create Pakistan, a new country for Muslims, about 20 million people of Bengal and Punjab were displaced and brutally victimized. Sen’s wealthy, literate family had huge landed property in erstwhile East Bengal, the present Bangladesh, which was carved out to be East Pakistan for Muslims. So for being Hindus Sen’s family was overnight evicted from their home. Without taking any possessions, they fled for their lives amidst people warring over religion, and so became squatted refugees in West Bengal.
