Amit Ambalal - painting a world slightly out of balance

Amit Ambalal, born in 1943, began his career running his family’s textile mill. In 1977 he left the world of business and became a full-time painter.

Ambalal established himself as one of Indian’s most innovative, yet curious artists. He paints a world slightly out of balance, a place of the senses and unintended events.

The narratives in these paintings are suggestive; little is clearly defined. To interpret this work, it is best to relay on one’s intuition, rather than one’s intellect.
