Bansi Khatri’s solo exhibition, Shakti, is an evocative exploration of Indian mythology, culture, and spirituality, presented through an artistic lens that merges tradition with modernity. Hosted at the esteemed Nippon Gallery in Mumbai from December 3rd to December 7th, 2024, the exhibition features a series of paintings crafted with paper, paper pulp, and acrylic on board. The works not only captivate with their aesthetic beauty but also offer a profound insight into the esoteric realms of Indian Vedic rituals, specifically focusing on Shakti—the primordial energy that powers creation.
Born in Ahmedabad in 1964 and armed with a diploma in fine arts, Bansi’s artistic foundation is steeped in the rich traditions of a Brahmin upbringing. Influenced by his grandparents and an early exposure to Vedic scriptures, Bansi developed a deep respect for ancient Indian knowledge systems. His work draws heavily from the spiritual and philosophical aspects of Indian culture, showcasing elements of Tantra, Yantra, and Mantra, which form the spiritual geometry and symbolic language of his art.
For over two decades, Bansi has specialized in exploring the geometric forms of Lingam-Yoni, Tantra symbols, and other metaphysical patterns that represent the union of divine energies. His art bridges the sacred and the contemporary, taking traditional concepts and reinterpreting them with innovative materials and techniques. Each piece in this collection is a visual meditation, a journey into the multi-dimensional world of spirituality, expressed through complex layers, vibrant colors, and textured surfaces.

Bansi’s process of creation has evolved significantly over time, embracing experimentation with new surfaces and materials while maintaining the essence of Vedic traditions. He views the modern era of digitalization as an extension of ancient Indian Tantra and Mantra practices, describing it as a revolutionary phase where mechanical forms of Yantras have become tools for energy transformation. His work underscores the timeless relevance of Indian Vedic science, demonstrating its seamless integration with modern aesthetics.
The signature style of Bansi Khatri’s art is marked by its meticulous attention to detail, spiritual symbolism, and the use of layered compositions to evoke the energy dynamics of his subjects. The geometrical forms and vibrant hues resonate with a sense of harmony, balance, and spiritual transcendence. Each painting invites viewers to connect with the profound energy of Shakti and engage in a dialogue between the physical and metaphysical realms.
Through Shakti, Bansi Khatri not only pays homage to India’s cultural heritage but also inspires a contemporary understanding of its spiritual depth. The exhibition offers a unique opportunity for art lovers and spiritual seekers alike to experience the interplay of tradition and innovation, where ancient wisdom is reimagined for the modern world.
Don’t miss this extraordinary celebration of Indian culture and spirituality, which promises to be a transformative experience for all who attend.
