Mahua’s artistic journey began under the open skies, where as a child, she traced faces in clouds with her ‘Maa,’ her first muse. Guided by the wisdom of legendary artists such as Devi Prasad Roychowdhury, Mahua's creative path blossomed, earning her accolades from a young age. This exhibition is a testament to her growth, passion, and unwavering dedication to storytelling through art.

Through fluid strokes and vibrant hues, Mahua breathes life into moments, memories, and emotions, blending logic with profound emotional depth. Her latest series of oil paintings and bronze sculptures transcends time, offering a poetic exploration of human emotions and their fleeting yet eternal essence.

Her works have graced galleries across Bangalore, Mumbai, New York, Canada, Dubai, Goa, Delhi, Paris, London, Ahmedabad, and beyond, earning widespread acclaim.

 

Cherished by prominent collectors in India and abroad, her art is a blend of impressionist elegance and philosophical depth.

 


In Ana’s Spring Forth, Mahua transforms innocent clouds and their hidden stories into vibrant narratives. Her graceful curves and dynamic expressions capture the vitality of feminine forms and the power of human emotions. Each piece in this collection invites the audience to experience life’s beauty through her imaginative lens. This exhibition is more than an art showcase—it is an emotional journey, a beacon of inspiration, and a celebration of creativity that promises to leave you spellbound. Mahua Ray's work is an invitation to see the world anew, to find beauty in life’s fleeting moments, and to connect with the emotions that bind us all.

 

Don’t miss this extraordinary experience.
