One of The few Indian Artist to get featured in Forbes 30 under 30, Biraaj Dodiya

Biraaj Dodiya is a New York based craftsman from Mumbai, India. She has been Working between painting, figure, establishment and picture and she is keen on the manners by which people handle misfortune, memorabilia, and distance.

Across an idyllic and painterly practice that has assembled a nuanced visual language dependent on both examination and individual experience, Biraaj Dodiya considers the manners by which people measure despondency. The craftsman’s immense involvement with both conventional and contemporary media is apparent in her scope of artworks, models, and painting-design half and halves.

Daughter of Atul and Anju Dodiya, a pre-prominent craftsman couple, Biraaj Dodiya encountered a wide scope of visual modes through her normal encounters with her folks to global exhibition halls and establishments, just as houses of prayer and churches, from early on. Today her work uncovers the impact of various conventional and contemporary voices, with her number one craftsmen including Francis Bacon, Philip Guston, and Dayanita Singh.

While she had been finding out about craftsmanship, drawing and painting, for some time, it was distinctly through contemplating workmanship at the School of Art Institute of Chicago and New York University that it turned out to be exceptionally thorough. In spite of the fact that her preparation was focussed on painting, print-production and photography, over the most recent couple of years she has been more associated with drawing and sculptural establishment craftsmanship.

Dodiya had her presentation solo show last March at Kolkata’s Experimenter Gallery, which included for the most part canvases, and furthermore some sculptural works, like slopes.

Stone is a Forehead was Biraaj Dodiya’s second independent display ever and first independent presentation with Experimenter, Kolkata. Centered—likewise with quite a bit of her training—on worries of memory and grieving, she introduced a progression of works of art and figures that investigate the ease between the theoretical and the authentic, and between the vaporous and the substantial.

In 2020, Dodiya talked about crafts by twentieth century Spanish painter Manolo Millares—known for his sensational arrays and compositions of grieving among others—in a video discussion with caretaker Elena Sorokina, coordinated by Galeria Mayoral and Experimenter.
