Ekta Singha
Baroda
Statement
Ekta Singha's practice delivers upon personal interpretation of layers of experiences woven with paraphernalia of design motifs, forms and elements derived from miniature paintings. Her interest in Mughal, Persian and Rajput miniature paintings allow her to develop an independent language that makes its entrance in a pictorial surface that is layered with metaphorical and personal references. The miniature visual elements help her to create the desired pictorial surfaces.
