Echoes in Colours
, a solo art exhibition by emerging artist Anupama Arora Mallik at a prominent art gallery in Kolkata. Other notable personalities present included Ayon Ghosh, Badal Pal, and Prosanta Kumar Basu, all of whom lauded the artist's evocative work and emotional depth.
A self-taught artist with a background in medicine, Anupama made a remarkable transition from a successful two-decade-long career as a consultant pathologist to pursue her lifelong passion for painting. "Art was always my quiet refuge," she shared, reflecting on how it provided her solace and balance throughout her medical career.
Inspired by nature and the spirit of the Impressionists, Anupama's work blends both representational and abstract styles.
While she uses a mix of brushes and even her fingers at times, it is the palette knife that has become her signature tool, allowing her to create richly textured layers on surfaces such as canvas, tile, wood, and glass.
The exhibition, themed Echoes in Colours, seeks to celebrate the timeless beauty of the world around us and share that joy through vibrant, emotive compositions. Each piece invites viewers into a journey of colour, emotion, and movement, crafted with a sense of spontaneity and intuitive grace.
