Lisa Ray Instagram – So delicate, filled with longing and the timeless joy that is moonlight gazing, which is accessible to all of us, even under lockdown. And what an artist. Read below. Repost from @dag.world using @RepostRegramApp – #WomanCrushWednesday . “Her pictures have no design, for they have grown. Unbroken and unswerving is the flow of lines, for no hesitation deflects them from the course they take as they well forth out of her very nature.”- art historian, Stella Kramrisch wrote in her glowing review of Sunayani Devi’s work in 1925. Sunayani Devi never received any formal training in art, and had very little exposure beyond the Raja Ravi Varma prints and Kalighat pats that were collected by members of the household. Perhaps these limitations prompted her to look inward when she started painting in her thirties, going on to develop her own unique methods. Her process began with applying pale washes of colour on paper, and then drawing out the forms that emerged on the surface of the paper with minimal lines. As we wait for things to settle, experience our New York exhibition on Primitivism and Modern Indian Art on Instagram.
