Vani Chutani

I am Vani, a Gurugram-based emerging visual artist and storyteller.
My medium of expression is drawing, I meditate through drawing. I work with charcoal, acrylics, pencils, ink pens on canvas, cardboard, paper, fabric etc and mix media.

Delicacies of nature inspire me by its forms, textures and colours. Fascinated by intriguing styles (coming together with the media), I also explore film, animation and sound to express. I like to dive deep into intangible concepts of the human psyche and feelings. My work is purging of emotions repressed within and having the desire to be out and true to its very being. Sometimes, through this cathartic work of expression I find myself even more, gaining clarity and resolution from my dilemmas and conflicting thoughts. Hence, my work is a piece of contemplation sometimes.

I entered into pursuing design education at National Institute of Design, Andhra Pradesh.
Where I learnt many of the mediums of visual communication, like graphic design, film making, sound design,
animation, narration, theatre, and interaction design. Soon I found my deep love for drawing and illustration sweeping
me out into moments of flow. I would spend hours drawing, talking to myself through drawing and building my world
through it. I soon discovered my language of expression which was unique to me. And I continued my journey as an artist.
