Debashree Mavani is a full time artist from Kolkata, dedicating herself every day to develop her skills and ideas. As an artist she is passionate about translating the essence and energy of the subject into a visual story telling presentation. She finds it most satisfying when her truest artwork tugs to the heart of people and evokes unspoken and unaddressed emotions.
“What is unique to my work is that each piece is made with passion yet in a surrendered state of being and hence it develops naturally and unrestrained,” expresses Debashree.
She has pursued her diploma in Visual Arts from the Birla Academy of Arts and Culture. Later she went on to pursue her Certification in Appreciation of Indian Art from the Ramakrishna Mission Institute of Culture and recently in the year 2021 she has accomplished Certificate in Museum Studies from the University of Jammu.
She has been an exhibitor since 2013 with India Art Festival 2022 has her most recent venture.
Unveiling our rendezvous with Debashree Mavani
A. How many years you have been in the field of art and why?
I started my journey in this field ten years ago, as a student and now as a full time artist I am exploring ways of creative expression.
B. What media you have been using so far?
Charcoal as a medium has given me a lot of freedom, while oil colours allow me to experiment and hone my skills. Lately I have been exploring soft pastels and versatility of acrylic colours. While focusing on one medium, I also allow myself to play with other mediums to discover best ways to express my ideas and stories.
C. What media you are planning to explore in the future?
Next I wish to explore Leno and wood cut printing.
D. What kind of uniqueness you spotlight using your art?
The artworks I create have simple messages and most often clear for people to grasp it even in my absence. They have universal messages with vivid imagery aiming to be relatable to any viewer.
