Sajid Bin Amar

Sajid Bin Amar builds up a surface slowly. He paints and then scratches the paint away to make graffiti like pictures. He is certainly painterly. The result in Sajid Bin Amar case is a body of highly stylised and good-looking work. The method he has developed is consistently applied in all the mixed media works that are displayed.

Sajid Bin Amar studied under renowned printmaker Laxma Goud in Hyderabad. He has won numerous awards and has had shows in many of our major art centres.

The artist currently lives and works in Hyderabad.
