“Where Silence Becomes Form” Solo Show of Paintings By contemporary artist Nidhi Sharma in Jehangir Art Gallery

NIDHI SHARMA PRESENTS “WHERE SILENCE BECOMES FORM” AT JEHANGIR ART GALLERY

Mumbai, June 2026 — Contemporary artist Nidhi Sharma will present her solo exhibition, Where Silence Becomes Form, at Jehangir Art Gallery, Hall 1, Mumbai, from 9–15 June 2026.

The exhibition brings together a new body of paintings inspired by the Himalayan landscape, exploring themes of memory, stillness, transformation, and the subtle relationship between inner and outer worlds. Through layered surfaces, atmospheric colour fields, and intuitive mark-making, Sharma creates contemplative spaces that invite viewers into moments of quiet reflection.

While rooted in observations of forests, mountains, pathways, and forgotten temples, the paintings are not intended as descriptions of specific locations. Instead, they evoke states of presence and perception, offering an experience that lies between landscape and memory.

“These works emerged from a sustained engagement with silence—not as absence, but as a living presence. The paintings draw inspiration from the Himalayas, yet they are ultimately reflections on the inner landscapes we carry within us,” says Sharma.

The exhibition features works ranging from intimate studies to large-scale paintings, including a monumental diptych that serves as the focal point of the exhibition. Across the body of work, subtle shifts of colour, light, and texture suggest moments of emergence, transition, and stillness.

Nidhi Sharma has exhibited extensively in India and internationally. Her exhibition history includes solo presentations at Bombay Art Society, Mumbai Art Fair, Eminent Art Gallery, Gurugram, and Tokyo International Art Fair. She has also participated in World Art Dubai, India Art Festival, and numerous group exhibitions and art initiatives across India and abroad.

The exhibition will be inaugurated on 9 June 2026 at 5:30 PM by noted art critic and curator Uma Nair. Rajendra Patil, President of the Bombay Art Society and Founder of India Art Festival, will attend as Guest of Honour.
