Murali Chinnasamy Talk on Printmaking at Tvak Studios

Tvak Residential Art Studios

Art Talk : Saturday

7 February  

By 

Murali Chinnasamy. 

Murali has done his graduation from the Madras University from Chennai in 2006 as well as masters in printmaking from M.S. University, Baroda in 2014. He currently lives and works in Baroda 

The talk consisted of three sections : 

Introduction to print media, Presentation &  Discussion

He is currently working mostly in Viscocity.

His large scale drawings in pen and Ink are beautiful and his prints intricate & painstakingly done with such minute detail and expertise that on closer look reveal 6 to 7 colors whereas at first glance you see only 2.

 He draws inspiration from nature,  the environment & textures that exist all around in everyday materials. He gives the viewer a zoomed in view of insects and pieces of bark until he can sense the soul or feel of the subject he is portraying. 

He spoke about how he openly experiments and is constantly pushing the boundaries of his work in terms of technique and style. 

It was interesting to see his  “multi-technique one plate” prints with parts of it treated differently. 

Tvak Studios thanks Murali for the visit and being so generous with his time and knowledge. We wish him Well.
