Most artists today are seduced by the charms of the click-to-create era, recognising it as a potent tool for creative expression. But then there are those who still prefer to stick to the beaten path of oil-on-canvas, water-colour-on-paper, stone carving or bronze sculptures. Well-known painter Jogen Chowdhury, now in his mid 70s, maintains: “I personally think I can be creative without using digital technology. There is nothing wrong in using technology, but good art transcends…it should give you a feeling of the infinite…It must react, whether you use a brush or the Internet. Today, there are artists who do good digital work. But there are many who remind me of the hippies back in the ‘60s — confused and aimless.”
