Santosh Morajkar

Born in Goa 1973, Santosh Morajkar graduated in Fine Arts from the University of Hyderabad. BFA in Painting from Goa College of Art (1999), MFA in Printmaking at the Sarojini Naidu School of Fine Arts, Central University of Hyderabad (2001). In his paintings, the viewer is compelled to confront the subject of 'erotica', and perhaps his own sexuality. Although we, as a nation can lay claim to the Kamasutra, somewhere along the way the modern man is either coy or is too vehement on the subject. It needs a certain boldness to deal with this subject, which Santosh does with openness, balanced with poise. Currently, Santosh Morajkar lives and works in Goa.
