Introduction

The Singh Twins

London born twin sisters Amrit and Rabindra are contemporary British artists of International standing whose award winning paintings have been acknowledged as constituting a unique genre in British Art and for initiating a new movement in the revival of the Indian miniature tradition within modern art practice.

Describing their work as Past-Modern (as opposed to Post Modern), their work engages with important areas of critical debate, challenging existing stereotypes and redefining generally accepted, narrow perceptions of heritage and identity in art and society. Combining elements from Western and Eastern aesthetics they assert the value of traditional and non-European art forms to the continuing development of contemporary art practice.
