Instructor Brief:

Bhuvaneshwari is a Visual artist currently based in Madikeri, Kodagu. She has a bachelor’s degree in painting from Chitrakala Parishath and a Master’s degree in ceramic and glass design from Shilpa Sadan, Sriniketan, West Bengal.

Nine years ago she explored the medium of clay and continues to do so even today. Her works are mainly inspired by animal forms that are interpreted in a simple combination of form and colour spanning from miniature sculptures to slightly larger forms.

As they say, a little goes a long way she enjoys transforming just a small ball of clay into sculptures with details that is often worked on by hand without any tools. Childish and toy-like at first glance, her works intend to communicate with the viewers by invoking curiosity

She currently works from her space, studio Viridian in her hometown Madikeri where she also hosts workshops.
