Sathya Gandhi
ARTIST PROFILE
Satya is from Kumbakonam Thanjavur Disrict. she comes from a traditional weaver’s family.
She says “My life has been in villages and revolved around village traditions.
Most of my paintings are monochromatic. Even if there are colours, they are very much restricted. The monochromatic effect of old temples and houses always stood out and attracted me to do these artworks. The vertical elements of the buildings would always form the frame for the core of the painting. The diagonal elements would lead the eyes to it. My artworks capture temple deities, main worship area, narrow lane between smaller temples, traditional houses.
Light and shadow play an importance role in all my artworks. This naturally in- clined me towards doing architectural compositions in ‘Oil on canvas medium’.
