Sanjib Kumar Gogoi

Varied stylistic leanings and temperaments, Sanjib Gogoi has dabbled in both figurative and abstract art. He has been experimenting with different forms and trying to devise an aesthetic of his own since 2004. Towards the beginning of his career, he explored a more figurative style, to cater to an existing commercial demand in this area. But a little later he developed a liking for abstract art, which helped him discover his unique style as an artist.
Gogoi believes in fusing figurative elements and abstract themes in his art. “Non-figurative thought can be found in figurative art through abstract thought processes,” he told us. He further believes that “art should be created to give voice to one’s inner feelings and not for any material purpose”.
