Renowned painter and sculptor Renuka Sondhi Gulati said contemporary women are proving themselves at all fronts of professional and personal life and are emerging as symbols of strength. Her solo show of paintings and sculptures was hosted at Taj Palace hotel in Delhi from 18-24 February. Besides depicting beauty of women, she also sends across social message through her paintings and sculptures.
‘It’s sad that girls are being murdered in the womb of mother and society has a very negative approach towards girls. We have to learn from our history that women have always played a crucial role as mother, wife and even warriors,’ said Gulati, pointing towards a painting titled Save Women, Save the World.
In the show, various paintings and sculptures showing women in various roles were presented.
Gulati creates sculptures in clay, fiberglass and bronze and paintings in water colours, oil and acrylic on canvas and various media. ‘I want to dissolve myself and what shall remain will be just my works, as an extension of myself,’ she added.
Her works won a prize at the International Art Biennale at Malta 2011. Her creations have been selected by AIFACS every year since 2007 and have won over a dozen awards and recognitions at various levels so far.
She has had six solo and 26 group shows besides five workshops and camps. Her works are in display in private galleries such as Novica Galleries (Associates of National Geographic) and Burland Galleries, besides private collections at Paris, Geneve, Zurich, Bonn, Berlin, Malta, Orlando, San Francisco, California, Mexico, Cairo, Johannesburg, Beijing, New Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Bangalore and Hyderabad.
