Born in 1956, Samir Aich graduated from Government College of Art and Craft in 1978, and has been exhibiting regularly in Calcutta and across India. His art usually borders abstraction and Aich uses unusual surfaces and media to express his creative thoughts, which are passionate and spontaneous.

He has been painting almost for three decades now. He started out as a neo-realist and gradually moved into semi-abstract figurative themes. His favourite medium is oil on canvas, but he also does work in acrylic and mixed media. Since the turn of the last century, he has been constantly experimenting with new pictorial concepts and ideas, concentrating on essential structural details in composition, but never exactly throwing the elements of semblance overboard. This is the main aspect among many others that he wants to capture. His sculptures and installations are complimentary to his painted expression.
