The concurrently candid and suggestive, colorful yet melancholic quintessence of Arpita Singh’s artworks compels the viewer to stand before them and wander through a complex maze of ideas, imaginations and conclusions. Each one narrates a journey from the soul of the artist to the world outside, from the small memories of childhood to transitions of youth to deeper understandings derived from age and experience.

 

Her paintings are like blueprints of an urban experiential map, charted out of metaphors, myths, fantasy, reality, conscious stances and subconscious utterances. They are like personal journals, only that their pages are filled with visual anecdotes instead of words.

 

Arpita Singh has a unique style of rendering; her characters within the pictorial space are often propped against a collage-like background, ramified by events, time graphs, emotions and generic patterns of dislocation, struggle and existence. They are served in a palette of subtle shades of oils, watercolors or sometimes an amalgam of mediums, which simulate a dream-like atmosphere, or perhaps a situation which is experienced while hallucinating.
