Sridhar Ramasami

BOLD, INNOVATIVE, TREND SETTING, ECLECTIC. A melding of engineering and the arts.
A US citizen of Indian origin living in the Chinese artist village Songzhuang. An engineer by education and trade who started painting seriously after being overwhelmed with the emptiness and sterility of the modern world. Most of the change occurred during a 10 month, 4700 mile hike of the Eastern Continental Trail. The physical and mental hardships during the journey were fodder for some serious soul searching. What started as an adventure became a major turning point . It resulted in a drastic change in life style and philosophy - a rejection of the materialistic, nihilistic modern culture to a simpler, more conscious life with an optimistic philosophical stance.
