Vinita Karim is a contemporary Indian artist whose work is deeply influenced by her extensive travels, having lived in over 15 cities across Europe, Asia, and the Middle East This nomadic lifestyle has left a profound imprint on her art, with each piece reflecting a blend of geographic and architectural memories Her signature cityscapes, painted in a rich palette of gold, red, and blue, combine elements of both the real and the imagined, creating vibrant, dreamlike landscapes

Karim’s paintings are inspired by various cities and cultures she has experienced, with subtle references to the Mediterranean Sea, the Padma River, and the minarets of Istanbul, among others Her intuitive painting process involves no pre-planned sketches, allowing each piece to evolve naturally Gold and silver leaf, along with silken threads, frequently adorn her canvases, adding a unique texture and depth to her work In her latest creations, she incorporates embroidery onto the canvas before applying acrylic paint, further enhancing their tactile quality

Karim holds a BFA from the Gerlesborg Art Institute in Stockholm and an MFA from the University of the Philippines Her work has been exhibited widely across India and internationally, attracting a global audience
