Description

Priyanka Chivate-Shendage, Pune

Based in Kolhapur, Priyanka has completed her Diploma in art education from Kalavishwa Mahavidyalay, Sangli. Her subject of art centers around aesthetics and strength in the lives of common individuals within indigenous societies. She perceives immense potential, strength, ability, creativity, and adaptability in both traditional and contemporary contexts. Identifying a deep sense of connectivity in all aspects of culture and nature, including people, she portrays individuals, places, objects, trees, and flowers as sacred entities throughout her work.

Her visual compositions honor the presence of common women, depicting them not only in human form but also within the vast expanse of nature, including trees, flowers, and similar elements. Her visual narration serves as a testament to her paintings being a language of expression, illustrating divinities, myths, and legends.
