Charmi Mehta
Hi, I am Charmi Mehta originally from Mumbai, India. I moved to Canada in 2019. I started my art journey to heal myself and gain positivity. I never had a chance to study art but I believe to learn as I go through in this journey to unlock the possibilities that lies ahead of me.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
My childhood involved travelling across India from mountain to mountain, through rivers and back home. I observed captured and left inspired by the history, culture, architecture, colours, patterns and everything that made me feel and awaken. A feather like symbol is noticeable in my recent works and is inspired by the national bird of India peacock which also represents power, divinity and strength. My works are made up of pen, watercolour/gouache, gold ink and hand embroidery. I hope anyone who comes across my work is able to inhale positivity in some way.
