Narendra Patel was born 10th September 1983 in Bhinar, Gujarat. He graduated in 2006 from the Faculty of Fine Arts, M.S.University, Vadodara and in 2008 secured a Masters degree from the same university. Narendra has participated in several group shows. His paintings are expressive and evocative, which mainly comes up through his surface treatment. He creates a surface which is semi transparent and full of color, which he uses as a base to inscribe his motifs. The surface is created with layers of color smudging and spreading towards each other, even canceling their effects at times. Narendra handles this with ease, inscribing silhouettes of figures of humans and animals which relate to the space therein. The process of enhancement and cancellation happens simultaneously in his works, and as a result, his works appear like spaces where excavations are possible. The forceful use of brushwork brings an additional air of strength and harmony to these works, often tending towards a poetic vision which is soothing and appreciative of the moments and spontaneously guides the viewer to absorb that which is easily overlooked and lost. Narendra applies himself with fluidity and openness, always working hard to know the life force ‘in the moment’ and to capture with energy and compassion the depth of feeling embedded there.
Narendra lives and works in Baroda.
