“Art is expressing tradition in a mordern manner.”

My paintings are just the intersection of mordern and traditional art forms

Read the editorial feature on Shivani Pundir at the Musée Living Journal. Shivani Pundir has exhibited at Musée Art Café, Dehradun — where KalaCUBE began.

Shivani Pundir is a painter from Dehradun who describes her work as the intersection of modern and traditional art forms — a way, as she puts it, of expressing tradition in a modern manner. Working largely in acrylics, often on handmade sheets, she brings indigenous visual traditions into a contemporary hand, letting the evidence of time spent and decisions made stay visible in every piece.

Her subjects range across India's living heritage. Ghats of varanasi renders the sacred city in a way that feels personal rather than postcard-familiar, while Tribal art, Tiles art and Batua art draw on pattern, craft and indigenous motif. Mrig turns toward wildlife and quiet observation, and The natraj, worked in natural colours and pen on ivory, brings a devotional grace to her range of materials.

Artists like Shivani are exactly who KalaCUBE was built for. The platform grew from Musée Living and the Musée Art Café in Dehradun, championing the handmade art of Uttarakhand. We warmly invite you to explore her paintings, where tradition and modern sensibility meet, and to collect a piece that carries that heritage forward.
