Swarnaly Mitra Rini ( b. 1984, Jamalpur, Bangladesh) adopts subjects and materials that could “Art in daily life”,expand with her gaze as an observer and her self. Her attitude towards Materiality and subjectivity have a mutual understanding. She also uses cut-board made of boxes were folded up /opened and invented constructer expect her such material is travelling two dimensional/three dimension or reduction/expansion. Relationship with motifs/ Artist (self). Portrait and mountains were painted mirror images as it reveals behind itself through considerate simple perspective technique, and it has a dualistic confrontational relationship. She gives voice that “Who’s doing art or not, on this way, nobody teaches what is a profession as an artist, an artist becomes an artist by nature with the action of continuing experience on this world. I don’t against obviously about what to occur on our society account of my sexuality, nationality let's say identifiable information. I somehow gaze to my internal via reflection my works and interrelated of environments and I.” Many philosophers, writers never exposed their diary till they pass away or brings their coffins, just burned it out. In this way, Rini Mitra apparently old-school artist form, yet paradoxically speaking, she is a contemporary artist as being one of efficient cause for demonstrating to the audience “how to see”.
