Paresh Hazra
Paresh Hazra was born and brought up in a village Khanyadihi in West Bengal. He studied at the Government College of Art and Craft, Kolkata, and in 1981, moved to Bengaluru. A storyteller at heart, he merely drops hints and lets art lovers find the story for themselves. Hazra experiments with textures using objects like string, fabric, and gauze. He mainly uses natural colours. Natural pigments have a longer life, and remain vibrant throughout, unlike chemical paints.
He immersed himself in creating art in every possible form and dimension while traveling his own country and the world. The exposure to various societies got him in touch with some remarkably talented and passionate individuals who helped him further enhance and achieve his creative pursuits.
People alone have not influenced his inspiration; his work is also significantly influenced by folk songs, lives of simple tribal people and their folk motifs. Having worked on such subjects he looks forward to bridging these folk elements in my paintings with the contemporary
Born in 1952 in Tamluk, Midnapur district,West Bengal.
Graduated from the Government Art College, Calcutta (First Class). Postgraduate diploma in the teaching of Art in 1980. Has been exhibiting his paintings in India and Abroad.
