The artist’s creative journey emerged from an upbringing surrounded by music, literature, photography, and art. Inspired by Indian figurative traditions and folk culture, the artist reinterprets traditional visual languages through a contemporary lens, blending heritage with modern influences.
The works create a world between reality and imagination, where fantasy, memory, and lived experiences merge. Moving between representation and abstraction, the artist explores nature, materials, and textures through experimental processes.
Using found plant elements, layered canvases, prints, and mixed media, each artwork evolves organically through a process of discovery. The artist embraces uncertainty, allowing unexpected combinations of colours, forms, and materials to shape the final composition.
The work invites viewers to engage with a visual experience that challenges perception and reflects the artist’s personal connection with creativity, experimentation, and storytelling.
