Self Portrait

Born in Mymensingh, a District of Bangladesh in division of Dhaka, on December 15 . I had finished bachelor of fine art BFA(hons) from University of Dhaka, Bangladesh & now i am freelance artist. nature lover & trying to work for humanity........

HUMAN [Essence of Mystery]

Human being is the most powerful fact comparing to any materialistic ones on earth. Once he exploits his emotion, brain & spiritual nature, he could indeed transcend to future. Through spirituality and use of brain man is “unlimited” entity, some mysterious creature of some magical nature. For the reason my 1st solo presentation has got the title “Essence of Mystery”. In nature some facts are visual and some are beyond, even sometimes we just can sense or realize some feel and fact but we can’t express. In this aspect we try to find symbols to represent the state. How mysterious we are and everything is! The Universe, earth, life and here I am breathing, writing, thinking everything is just perfect but I wonder where the source of this power is! This mystery (spiritual and materialistic bond) leads me to the next level of my life and art. Here in my art the materialistic states and spiritual ones have been blended identically to a twin in human nature via my own perception by using 'symbol' along with 'reality'. Thus, most of all has been contemplated to the intricacies mystery (feel, realization, perception) of life in various segments of my art.

I'm not going to pretend that those entire queries can be answered in one short article or in few presentation of art! But I think we can get closer to some certain pieces of the truth than we might realize such an awe-inspiring. Hope my perception would inspire or help to know ourselves better and transcend ourselves to future. ------------©Tarak Mahadi-----------

IMPACT

In each level of evolution past & present are mutual part to future. Even every better change has come by depend on past & present states with lots of analysis & in this universe everything is evolving nothing is complete in any way. All are just in continuous process, here just human can try to make things better or worse. As human we are responsible & that's the reason i dare to dream about peaceful society, earth, where only human can open the door of light to future by his thoughts & activities. Here is our identity.

I reckon, art is technical presentation of situation, so it is as vast as universe...... Many feelings, matter, things charge me very deeply, these reflects in my life, as well as in art. When Negative matters contact me it flows in each aspects of my life, it hurts, my heart pretends. The reason why sometimes I show those negative segment to make understand & to change of it, for these presentation, it seems that I am skipping beauty part but actually the hope is, beauty is dormant behind the cruelty, or I should say --- Darkness is the essence of all invention where we found all light. So light is the fragment of darkness, edge of unlimited universe.

About me, am a human who lives in this contemporary world with art, has a duty to create the future by using visual art facts, imagination, spirituality, in this sense art is my media of communication. I always try to work on true fact & which exists beyond this visual reality, may it be able to help the society to grow healthier.

Art can be voice & message for our society, is the most important matter for future world.
