Nandan Purkayastha renders his creations with assemblage
black-and-white illustrations and inculcates a celebration of life through
swirling forms and fantastical creatures. Each panel, rich in detail, blends
flora, fauna, and human figures, creating a dynamic and harmonious composition.
His works depict the magic of mathematics, with every line and shape forming
numerical permutations and combination, invites ontological inquiries about
existence, as his art balances dark and light hues to enhance the overall narrative.
