Kanchan was born in 1987 in Bengal. He completed his BFA and MFA in sculpture from Rabindra Bharati University in 2013 and 2016 respectively. Kanchan Karjee’s sculptural practice is essentially figurative and centres around the anatomy of a child. He confronts the issue of emotional and physical representation of the figure through the medium of wood, soft yet firm to carve out, much like the moulding of a child through its life. Believing the language of the body to be the purest form of communication, he approaches the treatment of every form with this innocence. Even in his adult forms, this naïveté is palpable - being both deliberate and automatic, as over the years his hands have learned to execute intent and emotion with the utmost ease. It is rare to come across such sculptural finesse with the ability to imbue a work with both psychological and physiological mastery and Kanchan is that rarity.
