Vipeksha Gupta

Vipeksha Gupta’s (b.1989, New Delhi, India) works are imbued with their own luminosity, reflecting a deep meditation into human consciousness and the power of shared experiences. She looks to artists such as Richard Serra, Barnett Newman and Josef Albers for their sensibilities but is equally drawn to the mysticism of India and the Far East.

Light is the premise of Gupta’s practice. Works are imbued with their own luminosity, reflecting a deep meditation into human consciousness and the power of shared experiences. Using Fabriano hot pressed paper, Gupta’s work is highly stratified, she explores concepts through graphite, charcoal and pigments, with previous layers smoothed out. Every effort, every coating, still remains visible at the end, not unlike her belief that eternity is an embroidery of experiences that come together.
