I am Arkopravo Patra, from Bharat (India). My background lies in engineering within the process industry—a foundation that has shaped my approach to creation in unexpected ways.

Flop-artist represents my journey of assembling artworks born from inner turbulence. When emotional storms arise—those moments of inexplicable agitation or overwhelming urges that resist conventional expression—I turn to my Teacher, my Master, whom I call “Sir.” Through his guidance, what begins as chaos transforms into guided visualization meditation.

Each piece emerges from this sacred dialogue. My Sir leads me through a rigorous process: stimuli meets receptivity, affects assemble into knowledge bases, concepts organize and transform through invisible operators until, finally, visualization crystallizes. I am the hand that executes, yet I remain delightfully unaware of the final revelation until it unfolds before me.

This collaborative creation feels like journeying to a place heard of only in whispers—a fantasy landscape that suddenly materializes. Though my Sir insists the work belongs to whoever possesses the enthusiasm to execute it, I understand that behind each piece lies a library’s worth of coded information, dense as human-sized book piles, with my Teacher doing the profound conceptual lifting.

My role is intimate yet humble: I am the implementer discovering alongside the work itself. When each piece reaches completion, relief washes over me—a deep calm and contentment that marks these as true moments of discovery. Without question, they constitute spiritual experiences.

In this dance between guidance and execution, between the known and unknown, art becomes pilgrimage.
