Silhouette of a Changing Landscape

Medium:Acrylic on Canvas,
Size – 6.5X5 Ft,
This work depicts the contemporary Santiniketan landscape framed within the silhouette of Binod Bihari Mukherjee. By embedding the present-day scene within his form, the composition creates a dialogue between past and present, revealing the transformation—and in some cases, the erasure—of the region’s natural environment. The juxtaposition invites reflection on cultural memory, ecological change, and the enduring imprint of artistic and environmental heritage.

Creator’s Profile

Pratham Kaushik works at the intersection of ecology, memory, and politics. His practice responds to the silent and visible violences inflicted upon landscapes and the communities that inhabit them. Through acrylic paintings, he visualizes acts of protest, deforestation, displacement, and environmental grief, tracing how ecological loss shapes collective memory and political agency. Each work seeks to archive not only ecological histories but also the social and cultural ecosystems intertwined with these threatened landscapes, positioning art as both witness and resistance.
