Past Forward: Anita Saran

 Past Forward: Anita Saran

“The personal is the most creative.” – Martin Scorsese
Anita has always loved to paint, winning all the
art competitions in school as well as bagging
the second place in the national Shankar’s
Painting Competition for Children.

A self-taught artist, she held her first solo show-
‘The Naked Muse’ at Java City Studios, Bangalore in
1999. She is inspired by Vincent Van Gogh and
Rousseau.

Past Forward: Anita Saran’ is a celebration of her
iconic Wild Child days in Bangalore and her
passion for digital art.

But she looks forward to diving into the paint again
The current show of digital prints looks back at
her life as a model in exotic photoshoots that
celebrate Anita’s poise and attitude.

She looks back in retrospect and unpacks her personal
archive to revisit the Self.
She digitally modifies them with an expressionistic palette
to reclaim herself from the mirror of the past into the window of creative possibilities.
Here is a woman, model, writer, and creative soul who believes in karma and compassion, stretching her canvas to love herself and others.
