art dose

Baroda based print-making artist, Soghra Khurasani’s third solo show ‘Shadows under my sky' opened earlier this month at TARQ. The artist along with gallery director, Hena Kapadia speak to Vanessa Vaz about the process, inspiration and works in the current show. Soghra’s layered imagination reveals itself through intimate textured landscapes and natural forms of vivid colours allowing for a very personal interpretation and beckoning the viewer to take a closer look.
