Swaraj Das is an acclaimed painter and sculptor known for his individualistic approach and mastery of artistic expression, deeply rooted in Kolkata, India. With innate artistic talent that flourished from an early age, Das has crafted a distinguished career in Indian art, mirroring Shelley’s West Wind as he effortlessly captures the joy and essence of life on his canvases.

His work, a symphony of melting and overlapping colors, evokes a divine peace amidst chaos, finding the concrete within the abstract and the real within the unreal. Capturing various phases and moods, from bustling streets to the gentle morning light, Das uses transparent watercolors, acrylics, and oils to portray cities, villages, and their inhabitants, with shapes dissolving into formlessness and colors merging into harmony.
