Anusha Adabala is a self-taught artist with post-graduate degree in Information Technology. She worked for technology companies such as Adobe, Nokia, AOL before completely embracing her artistic journey. Her exposure to numerous cultures, countries she has visited and lived in is a stimulus for her work. As a woman raised in conservative family, Anusha found a powerful voice through art. A little rebellious, she unwaveringly stuck to her favourite subject matter - the charcoal figuratives especially of woman which are often bold, capturing the complexities and intricacies of untold human emotions. She is also deeply fascinated by oceans and explores nature through her mixed media works. To her, oceans seem powerful, magnetic, and mysterious. And her most authentic work of aerial-inspired oceanscapes, where land meets the shorelines are a celebration of her expertise in colours, layers, and textures. She relates the magnificence and mysteries of oceans to human minds. Anusha's work is composed of fluidity and textures to capture the effect and essence of the subject matters. Her style is meticulous and detailed- oriented. She effortlessly moves between Acrylics, mixed media, charcoal and through years of experimentation discovered some uniquely expressive techniques on her own. She immerses in imaginary stories and poetic conversations with every piece she works and presents with.

Dipali Meher, recipient of the Atal National Award for Art (2019), is a contemporary artist based in Mumbai, whose work explores black ink, enamels, and acrylics. Her style primarily encompasses ink wash, pen-and-ink, and mark-making, using subjects like bulls (ego), birds (freedom), and horses (progress) as metaphors for the self’s relationship with the universe and higher powers. Adding another dimension to her paintings is her unique ability to express the meanings of her paintings through poetic free verse. In 2023 she published a book of her free verse/ poems - “SOULitude”, which is available on Amazon. Born in Mumbai, Dipali Meher is a, Sir J. J. Institute of Applied Arts graduate (1996). Her 20-year career spans various fields, from illustrating for Indian Express and designing for Times Music to producing award-winning promos for Zoom and Times Now, as well as, working as a production designer for Govind Nihlani’s film "Deham." After exploring print and motion graphics, she found her true calling in fine arts, dedicating the last 12 years to mastering her current mediums.
Influenced by Japanese calligraphy, Buddhist and Vedic philosophy and her practice of Reiki, her creations are also inspired by mystical thinkers like Rumi and Kahlil Gibran. A workshop with Japanese calligrapher Ai Takaoka and the free-flowing style of Bangladeshi artist Shahabuddin Ahmed who Meher met at the Paris exhibition have also had a deep impact on her current work. Meher has exhibited in Mumbai, Delhi, Paris, and Dubai, with her works in collections across India, Australia, America, Dubai, and Indonesia.

Art to me signifies beauty. Soul-stirring beauty that enchants, captivates the senses and evokes raw emotion. The process of creating as well as enjoying art is a deeply personal one & its meaning is all about individual perception.
I began my journey by expressing my love for wildlife through art, and continued to learn and discover myself through different forms of art. My artwork straddles the line between abstract & realism, depending on my energy flow, mood & topic at hand, but is primarily abstract in nature. Abstract painting comes naturally to me, as I value creative freedom and find unbridled joy in exploring and integrating colors, techniques and forms. Art is the love I have to give – energy, passion, self-
expression & evolution. When I am painting, I can feel my emotions rise in harmony and for the first time in my life, experiencing catharsis, almost sublime and miraculous, making me feel overwhelmed and free. This has greatly influenced my evolution as a human being in the recent past and I have found my calling. I can be described as “Left brained & Right brained”, alluding to my passion and prowess as an abstract artist, in sharp contrast to my prior scientific background as a pharmacist and strategist in the healthcare sector in India. My artistic energy is free-flowing, using vivid colors to depict realistic forms in an abstract setting.

Allow me to introduce myself—I am an intuitive self-taught painter, navigating the colourful tapestry of life from the heart of the bustling metropolis, of Mumbai. It was a dozen years ago when my odyssey into the enchanting realm of art began. At first, it was a simple dalliance, a mere dalliance with paint and canvas. Little did I know that this flirtation would morph into an all-consuming passion, an avenue through which I would express my innermost thoughts, and a portal to share my soul with the world.

Over this captivating journey, I have been fortunate to tread the hallowed halls of countless exhibits and art fairs. Here, I have unveiled my unique artistic identity, a beguiling fusion of tribal mystique, abstract intrigue, and contemporary vibrancy. These elements dance harmoniously on my canvas, creating a symphony of colours and emotions that defy definition.

My existence as an artist is intrinsically linked to my relentless curiosity about the world around me. Each brushstroke tells a story, each pigment evokes a feeling, and every canvas whispers a secret. My art is more than mere aesthetics; it is my voice, echoing the experiences, dreams, and musings that define my being. Through dedication and practice, I've mastered the craft of taking the ethereal and making it tangible, turning the intangible into a visual spectacle.

In the grand tapestry of life, inspiration flows like an unending river. It pours from the grandeur of nature, the cacophony of city life, the silence of solitude, and the kaleidoscope of human emotions. My role as an artist is to capture these ephemeral moments, crystallize them in paint, and present them to the world as a testament to the multifaceted beauty of existence.

So, dear travellers of the artistic realm, I invite you to embark on this voyage with me. Together, we will traverse the labyrinth of colours, delve into the intriguing shapes, and immerse ourselves in the kaleidoscope of emotions that constitute my world. Let us explore the depths of imagination and the limitless potential of creativity. Through my art, let us transcend boundaries and forge connections, for it is through these shared moments that we truly experience the essence of life.

Welcome to my world—a world painted with dreams and emotions, where every stroke tells a story and every canvas holds a piece of my soul.

My name is Arun Kumar and I am from Jamshedpur, Jharkhand. I started art as a hobby during my childhood days and as I grew, my interest in art grew as well, finally taking shape of a career. I'm self taught for the most part, but I had the priviledge of getting guidance from some amazing artists for short periods of time.

Ahmed has been painting since his school days but deepened his interest during the past 20 years. He started with watercolour paintings exploring the beautiful landscape and still life, then moved to abstract arts and, recently, he has developed a keen interest in pop arts.

Today Ahmed Rukni has become an integral part of the UAE Arts scene, both as an artist and as a welcome guest of honor at numerous artistic events.

 My art is a reflection of my inner world, a blend of passion, dedication, and a continuous quest for innovation.

I believe that art is a language that transcends boundaries, and I'm committed to pushing the boundaries of my own creativity, constantly evolving and exploring new horizons in the world of art.
