Statement
Amita’s work is at once abstract and intimate, inviting the active viewer to scrutinize and participate in a personal, ever-changing narrative. Using photographs captured with a digital camera from her travels around the globe, each piece consists of layers of different images that are merged, painted, enhanced, and erased through a series of versions until the most complete and compelling story reveals itself.
Bio
Amita grew up in Mumbai, India. She graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design in 1977 with a BFA in Graphic Design. Currently working in digital media, she has explored many other mediums including weaving, painting, interiors and architectural design. She currently resides in New York City.
