Venita Lall Vohra

Quote by Edward Hopper

Her Story

V enita Lall's artistic odyssey finds its origins in the tranquil tea plantations of Darjeeling, India, where she spent her formative years. Surrounded by the awe-inspiring beauty of nature, she nurtured a profound appreciation for life's simplicity and its capacity to reveal extraordinary wonders. Growing up in a multicultural family, Venita was immersed in a rich tapestry of art forms, diverse cultures, and varied aesthetics, all of which have indelibly imprinted upon her artistic sensibilities.

Her artworks are an exquisite fusion of vibrant colours and intricate details, serving as conduits for stories that inspire viewers to connect with their own emotions and interpretations. Venita's deep-rooted connection with the natural world shines through in her masterful use of colour and texture. She fearlessly explores techniques such as dry brushing, texturing, pouring, collage, and sponge painting. Unconstrained by a particular medium, she often amalgamates diverse styles and materials, including ink, watercolor, acrylic, oil, oil pastels, pen, pencil, charcoal, and poster paint, crafting truly unique pieces of art. Her creations are a testament to the multifaceted nature of life, reflecting the myriad experiences it offers and the reflections of her personal journey.

Venita, a recipient of gold and silver medals, boasts a robust design background, holding a Bachelor of Design in Interior Design from Raffles College of Design and Commerce in Sydney and a Diploma in Textile Design from Sophia Polytechnic in Mumbai. Her artistic endeavors have graced numerous solo and group exhibitions in galleries, with her paintings now proudly adorning homes across several countries.

As life continued to unfold, Venita embarked on a quest to declutter her mind and embrace life's simpler pleasures, a transformative journey that resonates profoundly in her work. This transition gave rise to the Vitality Series, where she stretched the bounds of creativity by infusing two-dimensional art with captivating textures and unique 3D elements.

Venita's art is not merely a tribute to her profound love for nature and spirituality but also serves as a potent conduit for conveying emotions and sparking profound conversations. Her exceptional talent has garnered recognition in various publications and magazines, highlighting her extraordinary ability to seamlessly blend design and storytelling in a fresh and refined manner.
