SHARMI DEY

Self taught artist Sharmi Dey’s works comprise of vivid, bright colours which stand out from each other bordered by sharp, clear outlines which give the images an almost Cubist effect. Strong, clear cut borders and subtle, semi abstract shading give a depth to the seemingly simple sketches which make up each figure. A similar effect is seen in the backdrops, which contain very few figures and colours, but are given extra dimension and texture with the help of highlights and shadows.

Sharmi Dey lives and works in Kolkata.
