About Artist
Pankaj is an artist based in Delhi, India.
He is a born experimenter, blending and transforming both traditional and unexpected items into meaningful pieces of self-expression.
His style is “Fused Unfused”. This is how he describes his work. He treats his work like an abstract thought, which allows him to play liberally in any direction, a complete autonomy. This is so realistic and abstract, but the soul of the artwork has been always lifelike. You can experience this blend and serrations clearly in his oeuvre.
His “Fused Unfused” concept originated with a sentiment of his generation, people and his life style.
They have core ethics of Indian value system and family bonding, plus the independence of experimenting and gelling well with the fresh creation. The way life has this beautiful fused and not so merged amalgamation- “Fused Unfused”
