Belief by Arati Mishra contemporary Art exhibition at Nehru Centre Art Gallery, Worli From 6 to 12 Dec, 2022

MUMBAI, 6 DECEMBER, 2022 (TGN):  Contemporary art Breaking the stereotypes of formal training Dr. Arati Mishra, a new artist with a refreshingly unique style, has made her first public display at Nehru Art Gallery, Worli, Mumbai, between 6-12 December 2022

Forgetting traditional training in art school appears to be the mantra of a new sexagenarian artist, Dr. Arati Mishra. Following her doctoral training in genetics at Banaras Hindu University, Dr. Mishra had a career as a geneticist spanning three decades in India and abroad. In her late 50s, she could not help but respond to her new calling: expressing herself in color on sprawling canvases. Her daring finally brought out her unique gift. After ten years of continuous effort, she is rewarded with her unique oil and acrylic painting styles–achieved without a formal training per se.

She thus challenges the stereotype of art-school training as a necessary precursor to becoming a professional painter. She simultaneously exemplifies the exploration of one & #39;s inner self as a prime driver of artistic expression. Images collated for this exhibition chronicle her decade-long creative journey: from an amateur to a professional. She has now displayed over thirty pieces of her work on canvases using acrylic and oil, with a significant part of her focus on exploring the gamut of emotions evoked by Buddha & #39;s life and work. She also draws her inspiration from India & #39;s diverse cultural roots and folklore. Her paintings start with bold lines, which then melt into quintessentially Indian hues.

Besides oil and acrylic paintings on large canvases, Arati loves to foray into fluid arts on still larger canvases for the sheer variety of imagery these can create and shape her imagination In her own words, she says, & quotes I will be very pleased if my paintings encourage the viewers to take a moment to reflect on both the common place and the divine in all fresh light ! A must-visit if one wishes to get inspired by an age- and norm-defying artistic expression.Ends
