Surrealist has a secret imagination

“Things on an Apple Tooth” 2022, mixed media on paper, 8 x 9 inches, by Tonmoy Khan.

LOS ANGELES, CALIF (PNAN) – Opening on Saturday, January 14, 2023, “Tonmoy Khan: Everything” is the artist Khan’s first solo exhibition at the Tierra del Sol Gallery and will remain on view through March 4, 2023.

Khan’s works continues two important styles by California makers: Hard Edge Abstraction and Surrealism. His systematic grids and hard edge color fields are reminiscent of Karl Benjamin, who lived and worked in the Pomona Valley. Khan uses tape to portray rich geometric watercolor patterns that frame subjects, including elaborately potted plants and other still life.

The artist tells important stories of how he sees and interprets the world around him in his art. He uses a combination of various media such as, pencil, oil pastels and markers, to illustrate his flora and fauna inspired images, which creates depths of vibrant colors and textures.
