About the Artist
Dhara is a Bangalore-based visual artist with an MFA in Painting from the College of Art, Delhi University. She has received the Swapan Biswas Award for Academic Excellence and the Junior Fellowship Award from the Ministry of Culture, Government of India. Additionally, she was awarded a fellowship by the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (NCBS) and participated in the Facebook/Meta Artist In Residence project in Hyderabad. Dhara’s work has been featured in various exhibitions, including the India Art Fair in New Delhi, Aicon Contemporary in New York, and The Anant Art in New Delhi, as well as international showcases like the Gulf Art Fair in Dubai, the Museum of Sacred Arts in Belgium, The China Art Museum in Shanghai, and the University of California. Dhara's work explores landscapes and their natural ecology, focusing on the simple forms of life, nature, and the environment that affect us deeply but often feel distant. Her aim is to show the connection and harmony between all things, moving beyond the idea of individual experience to a more interconnected understanding. She does this by exploring the microcosms of the universe seen in patterns created by scientific phenomena. From plants and living organisms, to the ever-present entropy in the universe and even human social hierarchies.
