Artist Statement

“Fusion, confluence, opposites - these are the driving forces behind my art. Having lived in three continents and pursued three arts - architecture, music and visual arts - I blend these diverse influences into every piece I create" 

Roopa S Basu is a London-based artist whose work is an enchanting blend of fine art and digital media. Drawing on her background in architecture and design, Roopa’s creative process results in captivating pieces that explore the interplay between tradition and innovation.

With a passion for experimentation, Roopa loves to push the boundaries of different media - from paint to digital software and everything in between. Her innovative use of mixed media results in unique works that are a fusion of art, illustration, and digital prints.

But Roopa’s art is not just about aesthetics. It is her way of making a positive impact on the world around her. Her community work and dedication to social causes are just as important to her as her art. Roopa aims to create art that inspires others to think globally and act locally, leaving a lasting impression on her viewers.

"My art is an exploration of the beauty that can emerge from the juxtaposition of seemingly disparate elements"

Having lived on three different continents and pursued three different arts, Roopa brings a wealth of cultural influences to her creations. Through her ‘melting pot’ approach, she breaks down barriers and creates connections between cultures, technologies, and ideas.

For Roopa, art is a powerful tool for building bridges and fostering understanding, especially in times of adversity. With her captivating creations, she strives to promote healing and harmony in a world that can often seem divided.
