I believe that, art cannot be apolitical, that it must have a specified standpoint. However, I do not want my art to be termed ‘radical’ or ‘anti-establishment’. My canvases are peppered with symbols from the contemporary world.

MRINAL DEY

This painting is a satirical commentary about the self-inflicted trappings of modern life. The central figure symbolizes over-consumption and the acute sense of loneliness caused by consumerism.
