Artist : Priyanka R. Guralle

Priyanka R. Guralle's layered and intricate compositions that weave together abstract forms and textures, prompting reflections on identity and memory.“I see lines everywhere,” says Priyanka. “They’re not just forms; they’re the lifelines of connection—be it the network of a tree, the creases on a palm, or the endless dots linking our modern world. My art is a journey into these lines, exploring their vibrancy and their enigmatic energy.”
