It’s rare when people turn their passion into a profession, which becomes an inspiration for the next generation. Madhuri Bhaduri – A painter, sculptor, and entrepreneur has done exactly that. What started as a creative flirtation with the canvas has turned into an illustrious career, which encompasses abstraction and landscape oil paintings with the seamless craft of creating sculptures and assemblages.
Before she even picked up the brush, she had a badminton racket in her hand, which even made her a national-Ievel player. Now isn’t that a stroke of genius?
With formal art training, she also has the gift of gab having studied French, one of the most artistic languages to be spoken today. And what if we told you that she holds an Honours in Economics?

For nearly 4 decades, she has added myriad shades to her personality and career, which reflects her undying fervour, skilful aptitude and one-of-a-kind attitude.
Just one glance at her artworks will make you feel teleported to a surreal world of countless colours, palettes, and aesthetics. Like a poem is narrated in verses, Madhuri expresses her visual poetry through intricate designs, delicate strokes, and versatile sculptures with finesse. Madhuri shapes her imagination into virtuoso execution. Inspired by the five elements of nature, her work is a tribute to the infinite facets of the environment. She has a penchant for an earthy colour palette, which encompasses blues, greys, reds, yellows, greens, and mauves. Her work oozes oomph, optimism, and opalescence. Her latest work Indefini Poeme is an abstract yet eclectic piece of work that has structured artworks but teases them with unstructured hidden meanings.
