This website has been created to showcase the works of Sri Rama Prasad Ghatak, an eminent painter well known for his penchant for moulding various forms of art on his canvas. His works highlight how complex artistic forms can be broken down into simpler styles and showcased on a form that is far simpler to understand.

He is deeply attracted by the simplicity of design, form, and content of folk art worldwide. This attraction coupled with Indian, oriental and occidental art, music and literature has been synthesised in his mental world and expressed as an independent art form. The simplicity, innocence, and dreaminess of childhood, the beauty of rural Bengal, and the unsophisticated and mundane lives of village folks have played an important role in his quest for self expression.

The fusion of dream and reality and breaking of forms to depict an absolute simplicity through minimal distortion is the object of his present experimentation.
