My artistic practice is an ongoing dialogue with nature, memory, and the quiet emotional landscapes that connect them. Working primarily in mixed media, collage, and on paper .

Trained at the College of Art, New Delhi, and later at the National Museum Institute, where I was awarded the Gold Medal for my research in the History of Art, my practice is informed by both academic inquiry and intuitive exploration. Over the years, I have embraced a wide range of media—soft pastels, pen and ink, collage, and layered mixed-media techniques—allowing each work to evolve through a process of discovery rather than predetermined outcomes.

Texture plays a vital role in my work. Through the layering of materials, marks, and found elements, I create surfaces that invite contemplation and reveal the passage of time. Birds, foliage, organic forms often recurring motifs. Each work is unique and intuitive. For me it's almost like painting with scissors cutting each piece like a drawing . Each paper is hand-painted like a small abstract work and later recut into a form . The work stays exciting because the outcome is not fully known from the beginning.

My journey as an artist has been one of slowly finding my own way of seeing and expressing the world around me. 

Over the years, I have found myself drawn to nature, memories, textures, colours and the many small details that often go unnoticed. I am fascinated by the way a line can grow into a form, how fragments can come together to create a new story, and how something simple can hold many layers of meaning.

My practice has evolved through experimentation and intuition. I enjoy working with my hands—painting paper, tearing it, layering it and allowing imperfections to become part of the work. Each piece becomes a process of discovery.

Traditional and indigenous art forms have also deeply influenced the way I look at art.

Today, my journey continues to be about exploring and learning. I still allow myself to be surprised by the work. Every new piece teaches me something—sometimes about the material, sometimes about the world around me, and often about myself.

I have always been drawn to the things around me that often go unnoticed—the lines of a branch, the way foliage grows and spreads, fragments of colour, textures, and the quiet beauty found in nature.

My work grows from intuition. I rarely begin with a completely fixed idea; instead, I allow the materials, colours and marks to guide me. I enjoy working with hand-painted paper because every piece carries its own character, imperfections and possibilities.

I am deeply inspired by traditional and indigenous art practices, their simplicity, symbolism and close relationship with nature. At the same time, I am drawn to abstraction and the freedom it gives me to create my own visual language.

The blue lines that often appear in my work are a natural extension of this process. They move like branches, foliage, roots or pathways, connecting different parts of the composition. For me, they reflect the many visible and invisible connections that exist around us.

My work is ultimately about following these instincts—collecting fragments, creating connections and allowing each piece to slowly find its own form.
