The pain and anguish and moral decay of mankind that Rabin Mondal chooses in his art to represent as his subject is made obvious through ghostly images, amplified by their iconicity. We see in Introspection two figures, one of them particularly scrawny depicted specifically through a defined spine, in conversation with another figure whose face is placed within a frame to iconicise him. Mondal seems to suggest a conversation between the two, given the gesticulation of the hand movement and figures seemingly engaged with each other.
