About the Artist

My practice is rooted in the belief that memories are living landscapes, continually shaping our identity and perception. While my formal education at L. S. Raheja School of Art and Sir J. J. School of Art, Mumbai, with a specialization in Figure Study and Design, provided me with a strong artistic foundation, it was through observation, experimentation, and lived experiences that I discovered my own visual language.

Inspired by nature, childhood, and the quiet poetry of everyday life, my paintings weave together personal memories with imagination. The recurring motifs of flowers, paper craft, and origami reflect transformation, innocence, and the freedom I experienced as a child, when even a simple folded paper could become a bird ready to take flight.

Texture forms an integral part of my work, acting as a vessel of time. Layer by layer, the surface preserves traces of memory, emotion, and experience, allowing the past to remain present.
Through my paintings, I invite viewers into contemplative spaces where memory, nature, imagination, and time merge—encouraging them to rediscover the beauty, curiosity, and quiet emotions that connect us all.
