STATEMENT
Rooted in the cultural richness of India and shaped by years of living a nomadic life across the world, my work explores the intersection of memory, identity, and inheritance. Trained in architecture, I am deeply drawn to geometry, structure, and detail, often weaving them into figurative compositions that balance precision with emotion. Through drawing, painting, and mixed media, I create works that honor the quiet strength, adornment, and inner worlds of women while reflecting the layered stories we carry across generations
BIOGRAPHY
The passion for traveling the world and finding beauty in details has been highlight of Sumi’s artistic career. Growing up in an Indian family rich in art, along with architectural background, has helped shape her unique style. She began by drawing portraits for friends and gradually expanded her work to create collections presented nationally and internationally. Her commissioned pieces have reached clients in India, Norway, Denmark, Canada, and the USA.
Living in Scandinavia deepened her appreciation for nature’s monochrome beauty, particularly the landscapes blanketed in snow against dark skies. This experience inspired her recent collection, which thrives on the absence of color, allowing the finer details in drawings to shine. Through this work, she aims to invite viewers to explore and appreciate the subtleties often overlooked in a vibrant world.

BIOGRAPHY
Raised in India within a family rich in cultural art and influenced by mathematics, she chose architecture as a career.
Sumi’s art draws from the contrasts she sees in life and nature—especially inspired by the stark, snow-covered landscapes of Norway and microscopic natural details. She works predominantly in monochrome, believing it brings clarity and emotional depth to her pieces.
For her, art is not just an external expression—it’s a reflection of inner healing, proving that the most powerful creativity often arises from within.
