Mumbai: Two remarkable creative minds, Arun Amberkar and Shyam Samant, have come together to present a stunning collection of paintings and glasscapes. Both artists have had illustrious careers spanning over four decades in branding, design, and advertising.
Arun Amberkar, a graduate of the prestigious JJ School of Arts, is well-versed in various painting mediums and has always been deeply passionate about fine arts. Shyam Samant, who began his artistic journey at the Bandra School of Art, has dedicated himself to building brands—both big and small—with unwavering passion and precision. This same dedication extends to his artistic expression, particularly in his work with glass, where he masterfully blends creativity with meticulous craftsmanship.
In his inaugural watercolor series, Arun Amberkar has chosen to depict Lord Ganesha, the patron of 64 art forms and the foremost deity in Hindu worship. This series draws inspiration from the Ganesh Purana, a Sanskrit text rich in mythology, cosmogony, genealogy, metaphors, yoga, theology, and philosophy—all centered around the beloved deity.
Shyam Samant’s Glasscapes explore the fusion of glass, color, and his lifelong fascination with flora. By combining pressed leaves and flowers with vibrant glass, heated at high temperatures, he creates stunning landscapes—unique Glasscapes that immortalize nature in art.
Don’t miss this extraordinary and refreshing exhibition, crafted with immense passion and dedication. The artworks on display are truly breathtaking.
