Sayed Haider Raza’s themes were drawn from his childhood memories spent in the forests of his native village of Babaria, in Madhya Pradesh. Raza’s style evolved over the years – he began with expressionist landscapes, which became rigid, geometric representations of French towns and villages in the early 1950s, following his move to Paris. Later, the lines blurred and colour began to dominate; his theme was still landscape but it was now non-representational, speaking to the sentiment evoked by a place rather than its tangible aspects.
