ARTIST VAISHALI RAJAPURKAR

“A germ of an idea grows within me, consumes me and when it has matured the outcome is seen on my canvas in all its myriad colours and forms.My inspiration comes from all things around me and my life experiences.For me the journey of creation is an emotional experience and can be cathartic as well as meditative”says Vaishali Rajapurkar

After having completing her Diploma in fine art, the actual learning began under the guidance of some of the most talented artists, where she learnt to handle different mediums and techniques.

She considers herself an eternal student of art. In search of new mediums and techniques or reviving the age old ones. One such technique is the addictive fluid acrylics with cells ,the guilding on boards is another one,these are just a couple of the umpteen number of techniques still to be explored and so she continues the journey

Title : Not just Nude series Each painting has a narrative derived from my own experience or from the society at large. During these times of isolation one has been stripped of all the extraneous trappings and left with the bare minimum.A paradigm shift one can say in our daily life!Each ones coping mechanism has been tested , each one of us has come out differently, positively or otherwise.The nudes in her series depict the vulnerability of our situation and the reaction to it.

Vaishali Rajapurkar throws some light on the aspects of social stigmas associated with women in her new series .Her abstracts have the continuity and mesmerizing effects on the viewers .The colors seem ethereal.
