I have chosen ‘realistic Still-Life painting’ as the visual language to narrate stories. The elements in every painting are connected and together they make a story unfold.
Indian women are finding their voice and place in society. They are represented by dolls inspired by the traditional Golu dolls of South India.
The compositions contain one or more sparrows that symbolise the continuation of life as we know it. The sparrows represent you, the viewer and me the story teller too.
The blank spaces within every painting is to allow us to enjoy just 1 thing at a time, telling us to keep life simple.
Come join me in this playful journey of visual stories.
Still.Life.Stories. Music

About me
...a contemporary painter and writer from Mumbai India.
Stemming from my interest in all things old, my work leans towards representing aspects that create a dialogue between the then and the now. I look for the similarities and commonalities between the past and the present and create a fresh and new visual to tell new stories.
I see myself as a sparrow whose presence is fleeting and transitory and yet observant and thoughtful. That sparrow is you [the viewer] too.
My current work is inspired by my interest in history, literature,music and poetry
I am Shobitha Hariharan
