There are paintings that capture your sight and then there are those that quietly enter your thoughts, linger in your imagination, and bloom with every passing moment. Cascade of Shades, a solo exhibition by Ragini Sinkar, belongs to the latter. Every painting in this series bridges gap between imagination and perception.

Artist: Ragini Sinkar |
Opening on the 21st of April, 2025, at 3:00 PM at Mumbai’s iconic Jehangir Art Gallery , this evocative show will be inaugurated by two distinguished figures—Hon. Pravin Darekar, Member of the Maharashtra Legislative Council, and Achyut Palav, master calligrapher, designer, Padmashree 2025.
Each canvas in Cascade of Shades feels alive with motion—not in the literal sense, but in how it unfolds across time and mood. A painting seen in morning light might feel entirely different by dusk. These are not static pieces, they evolve with the viewer. Built with translucent layers, subtle contrasts, and a keen eye for harmony, Ragini’s abstract compositions explore the delicate bridge between perception and imagination. Her work invites you to pause, to reflect, to lose and perhaps find yourself within shifting tones and textures.
A graduate of Sir J.J. School of Art, Ragini completed her A.T.D. in 1998 with first rank, followed by a B.F.A. in Drawing and Painting in 2002. Over the years, her work has been exhibited at some of Mumbai’s most prestigious galleries, including multiple solo and group shows at Jehangir, Nehru Centre, and Cymroza Art Gallery.
Her achievements include awards for design, object drawing, portraiture, sketching, and collage, and she has actively contributed to the Indian art scene through platforms such as the Art Society of India, Camlin Art Foundation, Bombay Art Society, and several women-led exhibitions.
Cascade of Shades will be on view from April 21 to 27, daily between 11:00 AM and 7:00 PM. At Jehangir Art Gallery, amid the timeless charm of Kala Ghoda, Ragini Sinkar’s paintings await, each one a quiet, unfolding dialogue between color and soul.
