About Me
- SangeetaGupta
- New delhi, Delhi, India
- A poet in her own right and an artist, started her artistic journey with intricate drawings. Her real calling was discovered in her abstracts in oils and acrylics on canvas. Images in abstraction. Sangeeta wields the brush with finesse, suggesting the viscosity of ink, the glossiness of lacquer, the mist of heights, the glow of the sun, and the inherent palette of rocks when wet. The canvases bespeak surfaces akin to skin, bark and the earth. Her first solo exhibition was at Birla Academy of Art & Culture, Kolkata in 1995. Her 23 solo shows have been held all over India and abroad She has participated in more than 100 group shows in India & abroad, in national exhibitions of Lalit Kala Academy, AIFACS. She has received 69th annual award for drawing in 1998 and 77th annual award for painting in 2005 by AIFACS, New Delhi and was also conferred Hindprabha award for Indian Women Achievers by Uttar Pradesh Mahila Manch in 1999.
