ABOUT SELLER

Vandeepp Kalra ia a mosaic artist hailing from Kolkata; Mosaic is the art of meticulously putting together hand-cut tesserae(glass mosaic tiles) to form various shapes and patterns. What started as a hobby became an obsession and eventually her career.

Vandeepp Kalra’s love for mosaic art is a patchwork of her experimenting nature, delving in different forms of art, and striving to create a unique form of art out of fine pieces of glass.

Vandeepp’s art pieces are mostly inspired by her life experiences.
Color plays an important role in her compositions and at times becomes the subject itself. Through her compositions, she tries to create an engaging discourse between the viewer and the work; a discourse guided by the luminosity and depth of the glass (mosaic), that is painstakingly cut and deliberately placed against each other to form a coherent whole.

Vandeepp’s dedication towards the art is witnessed in the minute detailing in her work. Through these details, she creates a narrative that weaves an enthralling experience of discovery for the viewer. The painter in her keeps the movement and the fluidity of the subject alive, which is a challenge to achieve considering the static nature of the glass. This is essentially the real beauty of mosaic art.

Vandeepp believes that mosaic art is still very nascent in India and wishes to bring awareness and appreciation for this beautiful medium of expression through her work.
