"Kathakali Dance Impasto" Painting

Maya Subramoni is a contemporary Indian artist whose work explores the beauty, movement and emotional rhythm of nature. Based in Kerala, her paintings draw inspiration from the region’s lush landscapes, waterways, rural life, flora and wildlife, translated through expressive colour, texture and contemporary abstraction.

With an academic background in Botany and Marine Biology, Maya brings a deep personal connection with the natural world to her art. Her scientific understanding of nature often finds an intuitive and poetic expression on canvas, where flowing forms, vibrant colours and layered textures create a sense of movement and atmosphere.

Her subjects range from Kerala’s rivers, forests and rural landscapes to oceans, horses, birds, flowers and human figures. She is particularly drawn to moments that convey freedom, harmony, resilience and the timeless relationship between people and nature.

Maya has exhibited her work in India through solo and group exhibitions, and her paintings are collected by art lovers who appreciate contemporary Indian art with a strong connection to nature and place.

Her work is created to bring not only visual beauty but also a feeling of serenity, energy and connection into homes, offices and contemporary spaces.
