Awdhesh Bajpai

Born in 1965 in Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, Awdhesh Bajpal is an important artist in India as his work spans nearly three decades. He worked in Shantiniketan, Kolkata between 1992 and 1994.

Bajpai’s artistic philosophy in his own words, “What birds plunge through is not the intimate space in which you see all forms intensified. (Out in the open, you would be denied yourself, would disappear into that vastness.) Space reaches from us and construes the world: to know a tree, in its true element, through inner space around it, from that pure abundance in you. Surround it with restraint. It has no limits. Not till it is held in your renouncing is truly there.”
