Inspired from the inner working and intricacies of the sub-conscious mind comes the artist’s expression of Dreams, Drama and Squiggles. But that’s just a tight summary. When Archanaa sits to make art - what pours out is an amalgamation of her dreams, spiritual pursuit, and moments of reflections/realisation. These often translate to a surrealistic visions and expressions.
While profile faces, snakes, honey combs and fractals is typical in her themes, each element has its own meaning to her. But her core philosophy that art should by mystical enough to bring the viewer one step closer to his/her/their absolute truth.
Outlandish concepts of Hieronymus Bosch, and the surrealism of Salvador Dali have been great inspirations to her.
She works with mixed media, predominantly with water colour, natural pigments and ink.
Having no formal art education and she has taught herself by observation, experimentation. She also makes it a point to soak in the works of the Masters as part of her travel adventures.
Archanaa was selected as one of the artists featured at the NYC NFT event in New York. One of her paintings was on display at the iconic Time square in June 2022 and 2023 as part of Diversity of Art collection. She has also been one of the finalist of the Julius Bär Next Generation Art Prize.
Her works has also been showcased in galleries in India, London, Athens and Australia.
