The experimental, visual artist has used diverse media ranging from textiles, brown papers, plastic sheets, handmade papers, to upcycled fabrics (Source: Sayali Goyal)

Sayali’s academic background in surface textiles along with her in depth study/exploration of art meditation influenced her artistic diction. The Indigo and Charcoal artworks range from geometric patterns to intuitive brushstrokes. Her voice draws inspiration from abstract expressionism, but also transcends the grammar of a specific school of art by relying on the spontaneity of emotions (Source: Sayali Goyal)

In working with the materials available to her, and drawn from the surroundings she inhabits, Sayali creates a world of reflection and meditative trance that upholds a world of creative and spiritual harmony which is able to convey the power of primordial shapes and symbols. The ‘narrative world’ of Indigo and Charcoal possess its own unique language governed by fluid conceptualisations and interpretations that privilege the inner world and inward gaze through gestural brushstrokes. And in doing so, is able to frame the formless and the fluid, notes the press statement (Source: Sayali Goyal)
