About the Exhibition

RevArt is pleased to announce Color Currents, a solo exhibition featuring the vibrant and meditative works of Bay Area artist Usha Shukla. Running from December 2, 2024, through February 21, 2025, the exhibition explores the transformative power of color, presenting abstract paintings that capture the energy, beauty, and subtle interplay of nature’s hues.

Inspired by her colorful Indian heritage and the serenity of the natural world, Shukla’s works immerse viewers in layers of pigment that evoke light, movement, and tranquility. Drawing upon her unique connection to air as both an element and a muse, she uses bold strokes and textured layers to transform everyday moments into extraordinary reflections of life’s vitality.

As Shukla reimagines color as an emotional and dynamic force, Color Currents invites audiences to embrace its meditative and transformative qualities. “Color is a power that directly influences the soul,” wrote artist Wassily Kandinsky, a sentiment that resonates deeply in Shukla’s practice. Each painting embodies her pursuit of harmony between her inner landscape and the physical world, creating a serene and thought-provoking experience for viewers.

Color Currents offers a unique opportunity to immerse oneself in Usha Shukla’s vibrant artistic vision. Visitors are invited to explore the exhibition in person and experience the dynamic interplay of color and texture that defines Shukla’s work. The opening reception on December 17, 2024, welcomes art enthusiasts and the community to celebrate and connect with Shukla’s transformative creations.
