OORMILA VIJAYAKRISHNAN PRAHLAD
Artist’s Statement
“My art is inspired by the rich and varied beauty of the Australian landscape. I like to explore the possibilities of collage and mixed-media, incorporating assorted materials into my pieces. I particularly enjoy plein air painting. My work is a visual documentation of everyday sights, scenes, and experiences.”
