Artist Statement
My artistic practice fuses cultural heritage with contemporary expression. I meticulously integrate the principles of intricate patterns and line art from Indian folk art with the dynamic, fluid grace of Japanese Shodo calligraphy. This synthesis results in visually compelling works designed to evoke profound contemplation. Through expressive abstracts and surreal figurative forms, I explore spirituality and human psychology, inviting viewers to reflect on their individual and collective roles within the contemporary world.
A key feature of my technique is the careful application of line work and calligraphy, inspired by ancient Asian artistic legacies. This approach establishes precision and fluidity within my compositions.
