I was in born and grew up in India within a spiritual family. During early childhood drawing, sketching, and painting came naturally to me. I continued to self-learn art and went on to complete my master’s in philosophy. I came to the USA in 2009 and began studying art formally at the National Academy Museum and School, New York City.
Since 2011, I have exhibited my work in several galleries and international exhibitions. Two of my artworks were selected for solo display in an international show in Times Square, New York. In 2015, I was granted permanent residence in the United States under the category of “artist of extraordinary ability.” In 2020, I became a juried member of the National Association of Women Artists, Inc., and in 2023, I was elected President of the National League of American Pen Women, DC Branch.
About
Art from Beyond the Five Senses
"The inner senses are as true to me as the outer ones. My art is an expression of that Truth—a truth that extends beyond the five senses of sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch. It is the truth of feeling and sensing, of the inner world and the intangible dimensions of the outer world."
The inner senses are as true to me as the outer ones. My art is an expression of that Truth—a truth that extends beyond the five senses of sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch. It is the truth of feeling and sensing, of the inner world and the intangible dimensions of the outer world.
We all live life through more than our perceived outer senses. In essence, all the information our five senses gather is ‘taken in,’ and that is where we truly feel it. Closing one’s eyes does not mean the visual world outside has ceased to exist. The same is true for the inner seeing of Clairvoyance. Once I accepted and became aware of my ‘inner eyes,’ my deep desire to see through them inspired me to refine those abilities even further.
As someone who experiences the world through a state of perpetual Clairsentience, the combination of inner seeing and inner feeling naturally sparks a deep desire to express that vision through art. Art is the language of my soul—of my inner senses—and for me, it is the medium that comes closest to expressing the totality of my experience, both inner and outer, onto canvas or paper.
Through painting, drawing, printmaking, and photography, I express both my inner life and outer lived experiences intrinsically felt on a psychic level.
An artwork begins within me as an intense feeling of love or pain, compelling me to reveal my experiences with both inner and outer realities. This awakening stirs a deep creative impulse to express hidden beauty, emotion, and feeling. As my mind dissolves, I experience a play of colors in my consciousness. From that flow arises a spontaneous release of energy, taking visual form through painting, printmaking, or drawing on the canvas.
As my art practice and I have evolved over the years, I can now distinctly express myself from a place of ‘no mind’ when I am painting. It has taken years of practice and hard work—the physical act of painting again and again—until I realized that if I let thoughts of the mind enter into my process, the end result is not satisfactory to my being.
As a psychic, I experience life from more than the five senses. I imbue my clairvoyant and clairsentient abilities into each artwork—be it a depiction of a scene from beyond the five senses or from our external, material, and tangible existence. In essence, my art is representational to me. With painting and printmaking, I represent the inner world, which is experienced from beyond the five senses, and with photography, I capture scenes that hold the power to move me to feel them also from a level deeper than the perceived reality. Energy is my first language, and I translate it into forms and also see it as colors. I do not describe or categorize my art as abstract, since the whole process for me is very conscious and felt at levels that go beyond normal, unopened human perception.
