Pratap Singh: Lyrical Abstract and Color Field Fine Art Painter

Pratap Singh is an Indian artist whose creative practice is deeply rooted in the traditions of color field painting, non-objective art, and lyrical abstraction. His artistic philosophy is a synthesis of mystical, spiritual, and minimalist representations, heavily influenced by the inner paths of Zen, Buddhism, and theosophy. Through his work, Pratap Singh seeks to capture what he describes as 'Purposiveness without Purpose,' aiming for a state of transcendentalism that reflects absolute spirit, peace, and cosmic energy. The core of Pratap Singh’s artistic pursuit is the exploration of silence. He believes that silence is an essential part of human consciousness that often becomes obscured by the noise of daily life. By utilizing his inner consciousness, he translates this silence into visual form, often through expansive outer landscapes that serve as impressions of his inner feelings. His process involves a delicate balance between the outer world’s beauty and the inner world’s joy, recognizing that the two are deeply interconnected expressions of one another. Technically, Pratap Singh works primarily with oil and acrylic on canvas, creating works such as 'Morning Bliss' and 'First Love.' His art invites viewers to experience a scientific spirituality and an optimal state of mind-body-soul. Based in his studio, Singh continues to evolve his minimal forms, providing a space for meditation and the contemplation of the temporal nature of being and the essence of the absolute spirit.
