Namritha Bachchan

Artist Namritha Bachchan comes with a set of preconceived perceptions. For starters, she is Indian born, lived in Switzerland & London & was educated at Rhode Island School of Design & Parsons in New York. An impressive combination for an art education if you ever saw one.

Then comes the little pink elephant in the room, her name . She does infact belong to the illustrious Bachchan family . Grand daughter of the poet Harivansh Rai Bachchan, (& niece to you-know-who) this other Bachchan has her own claim to fame. Although she is a poet in her own right, it's her art that captures attention.

& rightly so perhaps. Although she doesn't always get it right, I like the colours. They're nice.
