Looking forward and backward, searching inside and outside.
To stay curious, yet grounded,
To identify purpose, find resolve.
Tomorrow is a new day, I hope we begin to find our way.
In the voice of the tides, in the rumble of a storm,
may we find calm and happiness, and revel in wave after wave of love.
Here’s to a bolder, more gentle and loving year ahead❤️ #goodbye2019 #gentlereminder #onwardsandupwards #lookingforward
To ponder over Rithika Merchant’s richly detailed paintings is to go down a rabbit hole. Hybrid creatures—half-human, half-animal—totemic iconography and botanical imagery populate the strange and fantastical worlds that this artist dreams up.
Working out of her studio in Barcelona, she employs the gauche and ink technique on stained paper to achieve desaturated or muted colours that lend each of her creations an ethereal, almost otherworldly quality.

If in Bombay, you can check out some of her work at @tarqmumbai. It’s part of the really cool group show titled Osmosis, curated by @shaleenwadhwana
