Chaitrali is a versatile and spontaneous artist based in Singapore.
She is a qualified Chartered Accountant from India and has worked in the banking and finance field for over 20 years in Singapore and India. That said, she has continued to nurture her creative side since her childhood in one way or the other.
Chaitrali is a self-taught artist; that said, given her quest for learning and experimenting, she has also taken lessons in Fine Arts from established artist Shyama Nadimpalli over the past several years and continues learning through other courses and workshops till date. She has also recently completed Creative Visionary Program, 2024 taught by Nicholas Whilton under Art2life.
Being versatile, Chaitrali enjoys working across genres- currently abstracts, semi-abstracts and portraiture in the past.
Her artworks are often informed by her unique take on her Life experiences thus far and also express her continued wonderment of Nature, the life lessons and meditative calmness she draws from Her. Given her spiritual leanings, she is also drawn to the delicacies of raw human emotions and loves to depict these in soulful, and evocative portraits.
She also continually experiments with different mediums and uses an array of everyday objects and tools to create interesting effects and textures. Her repertoire also includes mixed media artworks, and sculptures, mainly using air dry clay and wood.
She has also shown her artworks in several exhibitions in Singapore starting with Nov 2022, Global Art Fair at Marina Bay Sands Expo, ION Art Gallery, at India Art Festival in Mumbai, India. Her works are held in private collections in Singapore and internationally.
