Shailly Gupta’s artistic journey began when she moved to Malaysia in 2007. After a career in management and a postgraduate course in Delhi, Shailly found herself drawn to the world of art. Setting up her own studio in Kuala Lumpur, she embarked on painting and enrolled in art courses to further develop her skills. Embracing acrylic as her preferred medium, Shailly’s semi-abstract works invite viewers to explore focused ideas while allowing space for imagination to roam freely.
Colour is a vital element in Shailly’s art, with vibrant hues creating movement and dynamism in her compositions. Her technique focuses on the fluidity of colour, resulting in unexpected yet harmonious interactions on the canvas. Inspired by her travels and a fusion of Indian and Malaysian cultures, Shailly’s artwork reflects her appreciation for the natural world and diverse influences, such as Batik, Japanese wood-cuts, and the stunning landscapes of New Zealand.
In addition to her paintings, Shailly has channelled her creativity into the fashion industry, designing unique clutches and evening bags that incorporate her art. By intertwining her main influences and her own artworks, she not only promotes her paintings but also aims to create a deeper appreciation for art through functional accessories. Each bag carries its own story and is handcrafted with quality, catering to bold and confident women. With collectors throughout Southeast Asia, Shailly aspires to showcase the region’s artistic gems and continues to nurture her studio, creating a brand that encompasses her art and distinctive clutch designs.
