Phantom Dancer Painting

Aayushi Sharma is a Canadian artist, who within the space of a squared frame, tries to build a world that is undeniably separate from the one we live in. Her artwork pulls the viewer out from a logical and common world, and places them within a space that is more alive. Her illustrations represent unfinished inventories of fragments: objects, drawings, paintings, photographs, and most importantly, imagination. Her arrangements are schematic and vibrant, inviting the viewer to move into a space of speculation. Her work reproduces familiar visual signs, arranging them into new conceptually layered pieces. There is a particular feeling in all her works of art, one that touches on the juxtaposition of the real yet surreal, a fantasy and a dream yet riddled with reality.
