Original Artwork's Description

This painting "Fork toxic masculinity" was a Finalist in the 2020 Waverley Art Prize.

This still life artwork shows a stack of classic books that have a common thread, i.e. the principal characters exhibit strong toxic masculinity traits. The literary characters in these books, such as Heathcliff, James Bond and Jay Gatsby, are romanticised and idolised even though they are sexist, misogynistic, abusive and gas-lighters. The forked banana on top of the books represents the need to bring about a positive social change by dismantling archaic patriarchal constructs and toxic masculinity.

Hi, I am Raj Panda. I am a Sydney based self-taught artist working in acrylic medium. I was born in India in 1984. I moved to Australia in 2007 and having been living here ever since.

I dabbled in art as a kid but academics got in the way so I shifted focus. I reconnected with art in 2012 when I was battling depression. Art has helped me discover my true voice.

I have been a Finalist in 26 Australian art prizes since 2016, including winning the Emerging Artist Award at the 2019 ANL Maritime Art Prize.
