ABOUT

Pratima Aravabhoomi Abstract art

 

Turning to abstract painting after a transformative meditation experience, Pratima Aravabhoomi explores the hidden connections between nature, memory, and the human experience. Her paintings are vibrant, textured landscapes of humanness—where personal expression meets the universal, and the seen dissolves into the unseen.

Using mixed media such as paper, fabric, acrylic, ink, charcoal, and pastels, she layers elements like fragments of a journal—tracing emotions, tensions, and fleeting moments across her canvases. Each piece is an unfolding narrative, where natural forms and human emotion blur, capturing the push and pull between chaos and stillness, past and present, individuality and the collective.

“My paintings are what I call humanscapes—landscapes of humanness. Our oddities, conflicts, and vibrant existence set against the vast landscape of the universal.” — Pratima Aravabhoomi

An Indian-born American artist, Aravabhoomi currently lives and works splitting her studio time between Greater Tampa and Princeton, New Jersey. Her paintings are part of private and corporate collections across the U.S. and have been exhibited nationally.
