Revati Sharma Singh born in _ in_, is an autodidact artist now based in London. She works with assemblages of ceramic, cast metal, hand-made silver, tapestry, embroidery and paint. Her journey began as a portrait artist 20 years ago. Since then her styles and techniques have developed constantly, from her earliest works featuring landscapes to the abstract and installation works of recent years. Central to her work, is an exploration of the nature of human society, and the ways in which people interact with each other. After relocating to Mumbai from Singapore, she observed the stark differences between the glistening apartment blocks of the city’s rich and the sprawling slums lining the roads below. That led her to use her art as a way to show the issues faced by India’s crowded and challenged society, and soon a critique of her homeland became a central theme in her work.
