SONALY GANDHI
Hyderabad, India
Sonaly draws her muse from what Andy Warhol once said, “All things are beautiful, but not everyone knows how to recognize them.”
BIOGRAPHY
Sonaly was born in 1974, Kolkata, West Bengal, India. She has pursued her BFA from Gwalior University, Madhya Pradesh, India. She also holds another degree, which is B.COM (Hons.) from Kolkata University, West Bengal, India.
NEW SERIES: Automobiles – Classic meets Pop
The concept that there is no hierarchy of culture and that art may borrow from any source has been one of the most influential characteristics of Pop Art.
Hence, Sonaly has combined the most beautiful and majestic Classic Cars and Bikes with bright and vibrant colors to turn them into Pop Art.
The beauty of Classic Automobiles is evergreen. Every one of them is elegant and elite in their own ways. The creativity, uniqueness and aesthetics of each model has inspired her to treat them as a piece of art, which Sonaly has then translated to her canvas.
Her works, for this new series, have been influenced by famous Artists like Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, James Rosenquist and more.
