Born in 1981 in New Delhi, Chetnaa completed her Master’s degree in Painting from the College of Art in New Delhi. Her geometric abstractions are drawn largely from the landscape and architecture of her city : keen observations of the metropolis translated into an eloquent schematic of lines and markers. Initiated as symmetrical arrangements, Chetnaa’s work reveals the need to deconstruct the order she once sought, so as to build a new geometric logic that feeds her minimalist aesthetic.
The artist has had four solo shows, and a special online solo presentation ‘P = 4L, {Deconstructing Square Space}’, with Anupa Mehta Arts & Advisory & has participated in many exhibitions in India and around the world.
