Yuriko Lochan, a Japanese artist married and living in India, blends the two cultures beautifully.
Using Japanese inks and paints, she applies this on Shikishi, Japanese rice paper board. The style and the sensibilities are Japanese but the colours are vibrant Indian. Deeply interested in nature, she depicts this in an ethereal way, her perception is deep but witty.Her rendition of the female form is bold and striking and very stylised.
A show which blends two cultures is always more interesting. And this one is certainly so.
