The Inked jewels Painting

Divyanshi was born in Uttar Pradesh, a state in Northern India in 1993. She earned a Bachelor's degree in Electronics Communication from India and worked at Samsung for 2 years, but later turned to her love for painting that she cultivated growing up amongst a family of craftsmen who once worked to promote a local ancient textile craft of hand block printing on dazzling silk fabrics. Her paintings are born out of this collaboration between her and her rich Indian heritage. It’s a visual narrative of the exchange that goes on between the two in the studio as the artist discovers collectibles from her inheritance revealing new tales of the bygone eras and rekindling memories of the long-forgotten past. Antique brassware, intricate wooden patterns, and attractive motifs offer a variety of textures that are elevated to a compelling narrative under an interplay of strong contrasting and dramatic use of light. She currently resides and works in North York, Canada.
