Autobiography - Local train

In Autobiography - Local train a scene from his adult life, Kalam Patua (India b.1962) captures the lively characters on a train, including a beggar, a snack seller, and the artist’s wife who has a toothache.Born into the Patua community of scroll painters and storytellers, Kalam Patua is a self-taught contemporary exponent of Kalighat painting, which draws on conventions from West Bengal scrolls and Indian miniature painting. A postmaster in a rural post office in West Bengal, he is one of the few artists painting in this style today. Patua’s unique watercolours contain elements of autobiography and myth, and reflect on social issues and current news events. Topics include the changing nature of Indian society; dowry deaths and violence against women. He also paints light, humorous works, including a series about working in the postal system.Exhibited in
