SUMMARY:Ānanda
DESCRIPTION:Ānanda – A Solo Exhibition by Sunayana Malhotra \nArtist Sunayana Malhotra invites art enthusiasts to explore her latest solo exhibition\, “Ānanda\,” a captivating showcase of paintings inspired by the ephemeral beauty of lotuses. The exhibition will run from 27th June  until 30th June 2024 at Visual Art Gallery India Habitat Centre\, Lodhi Road\, New Delhi – 110003\, offering a unique blend of nature\, spirituality\, and artistic expression. \nThe exhibition title\, “Ānanda\,” is derived from the Sanskrit word meaning ‘bliss\,’ ‘joy\,’ or ‘happiness.’ It signifies a state of profound\, transcendent happiness often linked to spiritual realization and deep contentment. Central to Indian philosophies and spiritual traditions\, Ānanda represents ultimate well-being and inner peace. \nFor Sunayana Malhotra\, “Ānanda” is more than a concept; it is a transformative journey of the soul through spiritual practice. Her artistic language explores life’s fragility and resilience\, guiding viewers through the intricate layers of the human psyche and the vast cosmos. Her work delves into identity\, perception\, reality\, and dreams\, revealing how these elements are shaped by intrinsic attributes and the ever-changing external environment. \nSunayana’s deeply personal paintings exude mystery\, with shapes and patterns emerging from layered canvases. The canvas becomes a dynamic space where forms resonate\, expand\, and dissolve. Each layer and motif requires time to be fully appreciated\, inviting viewers to uncover their own interpretations. Sunayana finds immense joy in this interactive process\, believing that her role as an artist is complete once the piece is finished. The conversation then shifts to the viewer and the artwork\, revealing the true beauty of her creations. \nTo Sunayana\, lotuses are more than just picturesque; they embody symbolic beauty and mythological significance. Her obsession with lotuses drives her to use every artistic tool at her disposal. Her works\, dominated by vibrant hues\, evoke a harmonious relationship between humanity and nature\, inspired by prosperity and beauty. The transient movement in her paintings captures the dance of cosmic energies and symbols\, immersing viewers in a meditative experience. \nSunayana was born and brought up in central Delhi and hails from a family of engineers\, doctors and professionals. She is the youngest of three children and she was always encouraged to express herself in the arts. As a girl she spent many evenings after school\, at Modern School\, Barakhamba Road\, to study Hindustani Classical music and singing\, easel painting\, and life studies in graphite and charcoal. She went on to study art at the Triveni Kala Sangam\, Sri Ram Centre and has spent many evenings at the Kamani Auditorium and the Lalit Kala Akademi\, absorbing the arts. She graduated in English Honours from Indraprastha College. She continued to write poetry but began painting passionately and with focus by 2005. Sunayana had her first exhibition at the Ashoka Hotel Art Lounge where she displayed 25 works and has grown from strength to strength since then. She has displayed her works at the Visual art gallery\, Habitat Centre\, Triveni kala Sangam\, Lalit kala Akademi\, many five-star hotels\, her paintings are in many private collections in London\, Muscat\, Dubai\, Virginia USA\, New Zealand and Australia. The artist is also associated and works along with many leading interior designers to create works of art enhancing various homes and offices in Delhi and NCR. \nDeeply influenced by ancient Indian art in caves\, temples and palaces\, artist Sunayana Malhotra works with paintbrushes and palette knives\, in a spontaneous overflow. She scratches off and repaints on canvas resulting in half hidden figures barely visible from behind layers of paint. The forms she creates are therapeutic for the subconscious mind and fascinate with their symbolic beauty and mythological significance\, as evident in her work series. \nExperience exploring happiness and spiritual depth through Sunayana Malhotra’s solo exhibition\, “Ānanda.” Join us at Visual Art Gallery India Habitat Centre\, Lodhi Road\, New Delhi – 110003   from 27 June until 30 June 2024 to discover this extraordinary collection. \nA solo exhibition by SUNAYANA MALHOTRA “Ānanda\,\nPreview Monday\, 27th June 2024; 5:00 pm onwards\nExhibition Dates 27th-30th June 202\nVenue Visual Art Gallery India Habitat Centre\, Lodhi Road\, New Delhi – 110003\n\nTime 11 am to 7 pm
