Nitin Dadrawala
 

Born on 14th May 1955, Nitin Dadrawala says that “The real is empty and the empty is real”
- Tao.

In the last few years, he has been reading the Zen school of philosophy which emphasizes the actuality or the “realness” of daily life. He tried to capture this essence of Zen living in his series of work. Through the process of painting, he draws inspiration of nature. He is fascinated by delicate balance of color, form and spontaneity that is seen only in nature. In expressing these images, he created an abstract colored surface which holds within it layers of meaning; it is in this very language that his silences become his speech.
