With multiple national exhibits coming to Hyderabad and major artists showcasing their works, it seems that the art scene in town is alive and kicking. Continuing the purple patch is Chromatic Conversation, a recent one-day art exhibition that brought together over 30 artists and 100 artworks for a show where audiences had a chance to soak in diverse styles in art (from acrylic to oils) and medium (from canvases to sculptures and photographs). Held in Secunderabad Club (but open to all), the event also brought art outside the confines of regular galleries which is a welcome relief.
Ratna Vuppala of Artiste Culture, who organised the event states, “The idea was to bring it to Secunderabad where not many art shows are held. The location also helps give us a set audience that is interested in art. Also, I wanted to ensure that there are opportunities for collectors and art enthusiasts to engage directly with artists.
” Apart from the diverse range of artworks across mediums and styles that were displayed, the event also saw engaging workshops for adults, including sip and paint sessions which saw many people (including senior citizens) trying their hand at creating colourful canvasses. From artists like Fawad Tamkanath and Nirmala Biluka to Payal Verma and Raju Tota, there was a lot of diversity on display, be it in the form of artists across the country or the subjects they chose to portray. Scenes from nature, vignettes of rural life, photographs that celebrated the stillne.
