Born in Kolkata in 1976, Debasis Das is a senior visual artist known for his inventive abstract expressions rooted in emotion, nature, and the subconscious world. Coming from an artistic family, his creative journey was inspired by his father, the late Nimai Ch. Das. He completed his B.V.A. and M.V.A. in Graphic Design (Applied Art) in 2001 and 2004, developing a strong foundation in visual storytelling and design aesthetics.

Early in his career, Debasis entered the digital 2D animation and illustration field, learning cartoon drawing under the renowned Late Chandi Lahiri. His professional experience includes working as an animator and illustrator for major companies such as TATA Interactive Systems, where his artistic sensibilities met the digital medium.

While professionally engaged in design and animation, his passion for fine art remained central. Over time, Debasis transitioned from watercolour explorations to abstract compositions that merge human, natural, and object-based forms. His paintings are characterized by strong linear structures, expressive textures, and subtle humour that often turn into an uncanny sense of introspection.

For him, painting is a way to translate subconscious feelings into visual poetry. The fluid movement of his brush and layered colours builds a language that reflects the harmony between nature, life, and emotion. His canvases balance realism with abstraction, where human figures, organic motifs, and spiritual undercurrents coexist seamlessly. Through his free-flowing strokes, Debasis Das continues to explore the hidden mysteries of existence, inviting viewers into a contemplative visual dialogue.
