Tejinder Kanda is a contemporary artist known for his evocative and thought-provoking artworks. His pieces are widely admired for their intricate details and profound emotional resonance, making him a prominent figure in the contemporary art scene.
According to curator Georgina Maddox abstraction holds the power to transcend the physical realm, allowing the human mind to perceive and connect with the intangible essence of the world around us. This transformative quality of abstraction is beautifully embodied in the artistic journey of Tejinder Kanda, a versatile and acclaimed artist whose practice has evolved from a figurative style to a profound exploration of the abstract.
Georgina Maddox said, “Kanda’s current series, titled “In-Within”, showcases his mastery of the abstract form, utilising impasto techniques and a vibrant palette of acrylics to create canvases that captivate the viewer and evoke a deep emotional response. Kanda’s artistic exploration delves into the uncharted territories of the self, as he seeks to uncover the “unidentified and unknown” within, translating this internal voyage into a dynamic and visually arresting series of paintings. Kanda’s artistic evolution exemplifies the paradoxical nature of abstract representation, where the artist utilises a non-representational language to convey profound ideas and emotions. Gerhard Richter’s mid-term paintings, for instance, demonstrate the artist’s transformation from photorealistic depiction to the deliberate obscuring and fragmentation of visual elements, ultimately constructing new forms of meaning.”

The swirling, energetic strokes and the gradation of tones from light to dark in Kanda’s paintings evoke a sense of emotion and movement that draws the viewer into the artist’s internal experience.
“Kanda is known as a versatile artist creating vibrant and dynamic artworks. He has an entire series of serigraph prints that he executed in the 1990s and he is currently working on a body of ceramic works alongside the large canvases that are abstract swirls of colour,” the curator added.

The palette ranges from tertiary earth colours of reds, browns to a group of cool colours that include blue, purple, and green. He even allows himself to playfully explore pinks, pastels and yellows, from fuchsia to coral and orchid which denote calmness and conveys feelings of relaxation and contentment.

Georgina Maddox said, “In-Within” series represents a profound and ambitious undertaking, as the artist delves into the depths of his own psyche, translating his internal journey into a visually stunning and emotive body of work. Through his masterful use of colour, texture, and gestural mark-making, Kanda invites the viewer to engage in a shared experience of self-discovery, where the boundaries between the physical and the metaphysical dissolve, and the true essence of the human experience is revealed in all its raw, unrestrained beauty.”
