Born in Rajasthan and brought up in Tamil Nadu, Pramila Giria’s art was heavily
influenced by the best of both cultures. The vibrancy of her art is a complete
celebration of life. Ranging from flora, fauna, spirituality, still life, landscapes and
portraits, her work reflects the aspects of her personality – peace, calm and
serenity. Working with oils and acrylic medium she captures the heart of the theme
through texture, richness of colour and illusion of light.
As blessed as one could be, her supporting family cheered and encouraged her
passion and talent. Her sibling Pradeep, who recognised his sister’s special gift,
encouraged her to enrol in a fine arts college and eventually arm herself with a degree
in Fine arts from Stella Maris, Chennai. Her journey as an artist was most awarding
when the accolades came calling. She won the second prize for participating in “A
Photo Journey of Women Empowerment” and painting exhibition on “Female Foeticide
Eradication Movement and Rural Development”.
In addition, she contributed to the society by donating her art to various
organisations selflessly. Her husband Kamal on the other hand, made it a mission to
bring her work to limelight and showcase her talent to the world.
