I saw the River fly!

Have you seen a river fly?
Well I have!
This morning, here!


She had sprouted wings of mist
Out of fallen stars


They smelled like incense

And a thousand flowers!

She was flying
Rising
Trying to touch the Sun
To embrace him ...
To wrap him 
in her love


The wildflowers giggled
The trees whispered
The birds indulged
In the morning songs
And oh the river ...
Stayed quiet and calm!


She spread her wings
Even more now
And the higher she soared
The brighter the Sun shone!


And then the river
Glistened and blushed 
Sending sparkles as she swayed
To the music the wind played
Leaving glitter
In the air!


And just then I saw the Sun
As if he responded to the calling...
As if he had taken a dive
...Into her heart
Aiming to dissolve himself there
Now and for forever!!


The Sun 
Drowned
The river 
Melted
And then she embosomed 
all that fire!

I fly...I Rise...I make an Impact

Hey people

It has been really long 
since I wrote a post.
 Reason...it has been a real crazy art 
and fun filled time for me.
 You would believe me when you see what i mean!
Ok so I got a chance to
 be a part of the Good graffitti Festival.
 the festival was recently held here in Navi Mumbai.

Good Graffiti Fest was a fusion of creative expressions 
& inspirational talks.
 It was a platform for creative minds
 and social change leaders to create, showcase their work,
 exchange ideas and inspire the youth. 
There was Community Graffitti, 
live painting by various artists,
 several creative workshops , 
Art competitions for children
 and some wonderful inspiring talks from social leaders.
 Overall an overwhelming experience
 which will remain in the memories.

The theme of the entire festival was "Impact starts with I"
To begin a social change we need to beging with "I" that is ourselves!
What a wonderful thought!



And so when we are talking about Graffitti 
how can I sit quietly and yes I painted and painted to my hearts full!

The Making of Bull of Change

2017 has begun on a creative note! 
My journey to create art
 from trash continues,
 This time it is metal scrap 
and old machine parts. 
In collaboration with Green Society Forum 
I have created an art installation - "Bull of Change"
The use of such metal parts 
lends an interesting view 
to the installation and 
has the power
to engage the audience
and to inspire them to be more creative in their daily lives.
and to think and act more responsibly 
towards the world around them. 









The concept is to instil among people
"Reduce-Reuse-Recycle-Rethink!

This installation is the first of its kind in Navi Mumbai.
 The purpose is to promote
 the message of ‘Re-Thinking' 
in the field of Waste Management. 
This metal sculpture will spread the message
 that 
not every waste can be called waste! 
Recycling and creative use of trash has the potential to
spark new ways of looking at the world.
One man’s trash 
could be another’s treasure.

Feelings 77...words and colours!


The year 2016 
has been absolutely abundant 
and blessed 
and I am nothing less but grateful!
 My creative play with teabags remained the highlight.
 It began with "My Chai Tamaasha" at Kala Ghoda Arts Festival 2016 in February.
 That inspired me to begin with my series of art on teabags which I named "Feelings 77".
 And then I got the opportunity to showcase "Feelings 77" as my first Solo Exhibition.
 What else could I have wished for! 
This besides other art related activities,
a number of art-sales and workshops!
 Thanks to my family 
and 
all my friends who have been always so very inspiring :)

Feelings 77-The Event




This event is a showcase
of a series of work on teabags
which I named “Feelings 77”…
one feeling a day expressed on a teabag for 77 days!!
Why specifically ‘77’?

I discovered that
number 77 indicates
coming changes
of self-discovery
or increased knowledge
through understanding oneself...
ultimately leading to greater motivation,
transformation or freedom!!


And yes the number I feel is catchy too!!
When you are breathing in
and breathing out your passion...
each day is like a mini-vacation in itself!!
This is what happened to me
as I sat down
to render my feeling of the day
on my canvas i.e. a tiny teabag...
I felt at peace…
in love
and celebrated that feeling!!
As I reflected what my heart held
at that time or may be some inspiring moment of the day…
it was as if
I was sharing a small bit of myself
with the world around me.
I strongly believe that
the key is to make the most of what I possess in the "Now"
…show trust and continue at a pace which delights me...
and not to stop come what may!!
I am sure persistence ignites momentum
and can create
an ever-lasting impression.


Inauguration 5th of November 2016 at 5:00 p.m.
Duration 5th November to 30th November 2016
Venue Shaurya Arts Gallery, Belapur, Navi Mumbai

You are all cordially invited :)

Curiosity leads to Passion




The doors to the unknown...
beckon...stimulate senses...
give way to fascination
And following the clues to life...
I set to uncertain adventures
...Curiosity leads to passion!!

The Showstopper!


Let what you do be louder
than the words you say



let your smile be luminous
even brighter than a sun-ray!



You have a beating heart
so feel alive ...cheers!
Your own smile is the remedy
for all pains and tears!




Get up... turn the page...
close the book if the need be
Move on...detour
your purpose ain't ordinary




You have the power
You are spectacular



applaud yourself...this show is yours
You are the Showstopper!!
