The language of art/ BOBO Calcutta
Artist and designer Ayushman Mitra, also known as Bobo, is the man behind fashion label BOBO Calcutta-a nonconformist label that creates breakthrough rebel art. A big fibre glass tiger with a human face dominates the store space that has paintings, sculptures, apparel, bags, furniture-all featuring Mitra's signature colour saturated art.
One of his most prominent motifs is that of kissing faces that talks about the "acceptance of self and the right to love whoever you choose". Mitra admits to being inspired by SH Raza "and his bindu as a symbol of eternity" that echoes in his works. Talking about his inspirations he says, "My colours and the gore comes from Frida Kahlo, the splitting faces from Pablo Picasso and the eyes from Jamini Roy."
