• Orijit Sen is a name many youngsters quote when asked who inspires them, alongside names such as Rachita Taneja of Sanitary Panels and Rohan Chakravarty of Green Humour. And he is appreciative of the work that’s being created by these non traditional artists. “They may not be artists in the sense of people who function within the art world scene, but they are artists [graphic designers, or working with mediums like videos and music] who are using their tools to make political statements. Art is a witness of the times and they are playing a strong role in capturing these signs — protesting, recording, documenting,” he says. Meanwhile, Sen himself has not shied away from posting his thoughts on social media. “My work comes from a space of anger, frustration and despair. If I don’t process it in some creative way, it eats me up,” says the Goa-based graphic artist. “The impulse comes from a very personal space, but I put it out there because I hope I am able to provide the people who share it a voice, too.”
