Online, August 2, 2011 (Newswire.com) - IndianArtCollectors.com has always tried to bring forward art, and creativity, to the windows of avid artists and buyers. With this vision intact, the online portal has joined hands with Delhi-based artist Kanchan Chander, where the artist would showcase an expansive collection of her works. The online display of art-works would allow collectors from across the globe to browse, appreciate, discuss and transact- at their convenience.

The Online Exhibition, starting August 1, uptill a fortnight, would feature a unique collection of Kanchan's work. "I have been associated with art since 35 years, and over the decades, have evolved and grown as an artist. Thematically, I work a lot on women based subjects- the art of assertion, of the feminine experience; the art of an iconic feminine energy and identifiable images of feminine power," explains Kanchan.

In her paintings, Kanchan has subtly spoken about the feminine power. She talks about mother-child relationship and has also depicted divine figurines. More recently, she has dabbled with the use of texture on the surface. "I don't like to be stagnant; imagination and creating something new keeps me going, and growing. To add texture to my canvas, I have recently started working with embellishments like laces, sequins, silver leaves and beads," shares Kanchan.

Kanchan has widely traveled and her keen power of observation is evident in her art-work. Her recent works consists of representation of the iconic Frida Kahlo, and classical sculptures. "Kanchan is a painter, printmaker, sculptor and a lecturer. As an artist, she has undoubtedly come of age, and her path has been a constantly evolving one. We are glad that distinguished artists like Kanchan are joining hands in our aim to promote Indian art across the globe," concludes Anuja Lath, Co-Founder and CEO, IndianArtCollectors.com.
