Ushma's Story
Ushma Gajaria is an award winning-artist with over three decades of experience as an art educator and commissioned artist. Even though she was born and brought up in India, Ushma began travelling around the globe during the early stages of her career which allowed her to embrace a diverse and multicultural perspective of the world. Eventually, her experiences infleunced her work and she began combining traditional themes from her Indian roots alongside contemporary art techniques in her work.
Over time, the experimentation process flourished into a full-time business of art and teaching. She moved to Dublin Ireland from India in 2019 where her work was displayed at an annual art exhibition (Sametāh – Le Cheile) which was an emerging platform for Indian artists abroad.
