Sujata Bajaj

Born in 1958 in Jaipur, Rajasthan Sujata Bajaj’s works display an abstract oeuvre and incorporates something of the myth and folk culture, together with classical Indian aesthetics. There is a contemporary and somewhat international sensibility in her work that appears in a conglomeration of a variety of media, like a collage on paper, wax, paint, etc. Each of her work acts as a variation on the past, the ancestral inheritance, in the ochre yellow and red palette can be recalled into the ritual circle of sacrifice; a hero-stone, a tribal totem, a lost goddess of fertility is suggested by certain motifs; and in the elegant calligraphy of the sacred texts, the hymns resonate the pitch of perfection.
