Jai Chuhan: Dancer


  • Harbour House Kingsbridge (map)

Chuhan’s paintings, which often feature the female figure within room-like spaces, are defined by her distinctive handling of paint and colour, where images are often dismantled and rebuilt, seemingly sculpted and then re-sculpted out of the thick paint. Her approach to colour draws from the Indian Ragas, compositional structures in Indian classical music that evoke emotion or mood. Together, her gestural brush work and distinctive palette lend the female figures she paints an expressive, emotional resonance.
