Artist statement
While travelling from my origin (India) to the West, I have been in the process of creating a personal abstract language, which communicates and re-contextualizes this change through the movement, which can be seen in my paintings.
Elements like colour, line and texture in the compositions create visual vibrations, which serve as metaphors for this abstract language.
Colour, being an essential part of my working process, not only goes beyond its actual visual existence, but also expresses my response to instrumental piano music, which stimulates my imagination.
The application of multiple layers on the canvas in different mediums creates an interesting texture and division, giving more depth to the painting. The accidental or spontaneous as well as the intentional forms are applied alternatively which become an integral part of the composition and maintain the harmony of the painting.
My work is very intuitive, exploring the vastness of my interior world – not seen in everyday life, but felt as very real to me.
In my paintings, I hope to communicate with the viewer my motivation and creative process through this abstract language; in order to leave the door open to interpretation and to initiate an exchange of dialogue.
