One of  Shombhit Sengupta's artworks from the exhibition 

In the 43 years that artist Shombit Sengupta has lived in Paris, the influence of his Indian roots has not dulled. “While France has a singular culture where aesthetics and imaginative power pervade every act of life, India, in contrast, is an extremely heterogeneous, inclusive society with no demarcation of good and bad. I’ve never seen a country this vibrant,” says Sengupta who at 19 moved to Paris, where he took up a sweeper's job at a lithographic print shop called Atelier Gourdon in Cachan.
