A bold display of creativity by presenting stunning concepts tailored for clients. Despite his achievements, Shounak remains humble and grateful. He emphasises the dedication poured into designing every little collateral, aiming to craft unforgettable experiences for the clients and audiences.A Spiritual Re-Awakening.In the world of art, Shounak draws deep inspiration from mythical and religious figures, a connection rooted in his family’s spiritual heritage. Growing up, he was intimately involved in various pujas alongside his well-known and respected Panditji grandfather. However, it wasn’t until he reached the age of 35 that a profound personal connection with spirituality truly blossomed..Finding Solace in Art.One pivotal moment that marked a shift towards more spiritual creations was in 2013, following the passing of his mother. The artwork, “A Broken Shivji,” emerged from a place of anger, disappointment, and intense sorrow. Feeling that his faith had been shattered, he grappled with the notion of Shivji’s perceived abandonment. To his surprise, this raw expression resonated globally, leaving a profound impact. The art touched the hearts of many, from Abhishek Bachchan sharing it during Shiv Ratri to numerous schools in India replicating it within their premises, a testament to the power of his spiritual expression..For the New Generation.Amidst his journey of spiritual exploration, a recent and exciting addition to his achievements is the creation of Dharma Games. He noticed a growing disconnection, especially among the new generation in Europe, from Hinduism. This led him to wonder why there wasn’t an engaging way for kids to learn the basics of Hinduism. Thus, the brilliant concept of Dharma Games was born, fostering playful learning about this rich cultural heritage..Embracing the Art World's Evolution as a Creative Entrepreneur.Shounak, with a blend of humbleness, confidence, passion, and motivation, draws insightful distinctions among artists, designers, and creative entrepreneurs.

Recognising that technology can elevate good artists to new heights, he dismisses the notion that it can replace genuine talent. With a friendly nod to the question of “to AI or not to AI,” he highlights the importance of continuous growth and harnessing technology as a tool to amplify artistic prowess.
