I am Shrikant, Visual Artist with experience in providing services such as art gallery management, curation, art advisory and art education. My academic background includes graduation in Fine Arts and MA in Clinical Psychology.
Currently serving as Manager for The Bombay Art Society; I have previously worked as the Head of Art Department in various educational institutions.
Based in Mumbai, I am painting professionally since 2009 with internationally commended body of work. My 'Flower of Life' series has been exhibited in India Art Festival, Delhi 2017 and Mumbai Art Fair 2018.
An avid writer, I have edited, transcribed, researched and written articles for a diverse range of artists and contemporary art magazines.
Raw emotions claw their way out on to paper in this series of drawings. Minimalist in execution, the lines aim to isolate the chaos within psyche, unstained of judgement or sermon. The result is a flat, two-dimensional space which directly compels viewers to experience art in its basic physical appearance and fundamental character evoking a personal connection and response. 'Sine Qua Non' serves as a mirror reflecting mundane everyday life from atrocious self-infliction to odyssey of human will to contrive order within oneself and the world.
