About the Item
Shanthi Chandrasekar has been trained in the traditional art forms of Kolam and Tanjore-style painting. While many of her works are influenced by her Indian heritage, her true inspiration comes from the mystery and majesty of the world around her; her muse lives where the scientific overlaps with the spiritual. Her artistic practice combines scientific and philosophical enquiry—facts and theories—with a wild imagination and constant exploration. The artist is fascinated by cosmology and the drawings in this series on handmade paper are inspired by the study of the origin, evolution and ultimate fate of the Universe. These big questions have been raised by various cultures and civilizations from time immemorial, leading to various creation theories. Through theoretical and experimental methods, science has been on the search for these ultimate truths. The artist has explored these theories and discoveries through geometrical abstraction, ideas from traditional arts, and her own visual interpretations.
Shanthi Chandrasekar has been drawing and painting since early childhood, and has been trained in the traditional art forms of Kolam and Tanjore-style painting. While many of her works are influenced by her Indian heritage, her true inspiration comes from the mystery and majesty of the world around her; her muse lives where the scientific overlaps with the spiritual. Her artistic practice combines scientific and philosophical enquiry—facts and theories—with a wild imagination and constant exploration. She is fascinated by cosmology, the study of the origin, evolution and the ultimate fate of the entire Universe, and has pursued it through art. Her striking, beautiful, and complex works question our known reality and seek to learn more about the unknown.
