About the artist Nikhi Aum

Nikhi Aum, a self taught U.S artist of Indian origin, currently lives and works in Mumbai, India. Born and raised in Bombay , she earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Ancient Indian Culture before moving to Seattle, USA, where spent 15 years. She returned to India mid-2019. Her works depict an emotional and spiritual response to the world as abstract art done in oils and acrylics. Complex factors and shapes felt and seen in years of travels as a flight attendant, across continents and interactions with a myriad cultures are residue of experience on her canvases. Artist Statement Beauty, Truth, Happiness, to me is all synonymous with Art-which is my prayerful state of mind. No matter how disquiet I might feel, once I start painting, it’s the stillness of the mind that crystallizes as colors and form on the canvas. The endeavor always is to share that good feeling space I reach, in the depths of meditations, with the audience.
