Jogen Chowdhury's artwork has an intense and brooding humane stare with sincere and pervasive cross-hatching, creating a rich and lifelike reality that reflects both innocence and interrogatory aspects. Narrating the deeper etchings of the psyche, Jogen’s expertise lies in the bare truth through the expressive, which in this case is identified by folded hands, erect spine and gaze towards the viewer. Chowdhury's figures work as lively characters--the subtle contours and colouring convey peril and resilience, reflecting adolescent introspection.
