Mukesh Sharma Prints and Multiples
Indian, b. 1974
Mukesh Sharma (b.1974, Rajasthan, India) is a full-time visual art practitioner based in New Delhi. He holds an MFA in Printmaking from MS University, Baroda (1998) and a BFA in Painting from Rajasthan School of Art, Jaipur (1996). On graduating in Baroda he continued his printmaking journey at the graphics studio, Jawahar Kala Kendra, in Jaipur.
There is a natural and raw understanding in Mukesh Sharma’s prints that depict, and are influenced by, the Rajastani communities of his home town in rural India. In his Limited Edition fine-art prints, made over a period of twenty years, we are offered the colours of India’s ancient land, the textures, light and the patterns that are everywhere. This work is however not romantic nor nostalgic but shows a deeper rooted need to offer images of place, of where the artist is from and the journey that he is taking. The results are both compelling and honest.
Sharma’s work has been recognised Internationally. His selected solo shows/projects include “Orthography of a Recondite Past” A show of graphic prints at Quarentena Galería Santiago, Chile (2021); an on-site collaboration with Amannath of Neemarana’s Tijra Fort-Palace on a bespoke suite called “Mukesh Mahal” (2017). “The Keyboards of Small Things” Gallery Sumukha Bangalore (2011); “World Without Boundaries” Galleria Corona, Mexico (2006); “(Re)visions” touring exhibition at the Long Gallery, curated by Judy Bourke University of Wollongong, New South Wales and at the Bay Press, Portland Arts Centre (CEMA), Victoria, Australia.
His recent multiple group exhibitions/participation includes at The India Art Fair, New Delhi, Venice Architecture Biennale - Venice Italy, RMIT Gallery, Melbourne, Australia; Hong Kong Visual Arts Centre, Edition Art Fair, Bussan, South Korea, Bonjour India festival Indo-French festival Le Musee Du Louvre, Paris; Gallery 27, London; Tokyo International Mini-Print Triennial, Tama Art University Museum, Tokyo, Japan; International Mini-Print Triennial EX-LIBRIS, Canada.

'This is life liberated, sometimes ordinary, with small gestures and everyday objects transformed by colour, context and composition and sometimes adorned, wreathed in pomp, pageantry, and glory'
Mukesh Sharma's work:
It is often in childhood that paths are set for what we will become. Mukesh Sharma hails from a rural, agricultural village in Rajasthan, India. His Father is a craftsman who fixed and mended farm machinery and understood the working parts in the processes. Sharma followed in his Father’s footsteps, as is often the case in Indian families, but his was not the machines of the fields but the presses of the printing studio.
Like his Father, Mukesh Sharma is fascinated with understanding how things work and how he can manipulate the metal in his hands. It is not surprising then that his medium of choice is printing. One of the most physically challenging of all the practices, it can often be physically challenging as well as technical and detailed.
In his youth, Sharma would draw with stones on walls and floors. He was lucky his family encouraged this and he is grateful for his early art-training at the Jaipur School of Art but it was at the Baroda Art Department that he was introduced to the great printing traditions of Jyoti Bhatt...
