Two Cats With Prawns: Un-framed

Description

Jamini Roy walked away from European academic painting at the height of his career and never returned.
He turned instead to the folk traditions of Bengal — bold lines, flat colour, and a visual language that felt immediate and unmistakably his own.

But Roy also had a quiet sense of humour. These two cats aren’t symbolic or grand — they’re simply absorbed in what matters most to them. Anyone who’s lived with a cat recognises that focus instantly.

On BAC’s large-format canvas, that graphic clarity comes through with striking presence — bold, playful, and full of life.

Presented as a floating canvas installation, the artwork is tension-mounted on solid Sagwan teak, creating a clean, modern structure designed for contemporary walls.
