Strange Horizons Gallery Presents...

Avi Das

For as long as I can remember, the visual narrative has driven me. I'm talking about comics here! I used to devour them as a kid and continue to do so now -- whenever I get my hands on them, that is! Phantom, Archies, The Justice League of America, Marvel Comics, Richie Rich, Mad -- the list is endless!

A self-taught artist, living in India, I meandered into the realm of digital art six years back. I'm an independent film maker/animator who loves tinkering around with various software trying to bring the myriad images in my mind to realization. I like to create an image which conveys a story and is caught at a crucial juncture of the narrative. Guess it comes from a strong passion for story-telling!

I have drawn inspiration from George Lucas, Spielberg and Walt Disney. Being an animation and special effects buff, and having always been attracted towards the fantastic, I have decided to pursue the field of sci-fi/fantasy illustration seriously. I recently received my first commission to illustrate the cover of Future Orbits. My illustrations have also appeared on the cover of Renderosity magazine. I now seek an illustrator's representative to help me peddle my wares in the US!

Looking back, I see that my initial hope for this episode was that the mud would have a heartbeat and a heart that has teeth and crippling anxiety. Some of that hope has become a reality, but at what cost?
to work under the / moon is to build a formidable tomorrow
Significantly, neither the humans nor the tigers are shown to possess an original or authoritative version of the narrative, and it is only in such collaborative and dialogic encounters that human-animal relations and entanglements can be dis-entangled.
