Must Know In Design: Studio Smitamoksh
An art and design studio that strikes a harmonious balance between contemporary relevance and spirituality.
They believe in the philosophy of being one with nature whilst keeping up with the ever-evolving trends and technological advancements. As a result, anyone observing their art can form an instantly deep connection with their work.
“We have explored repetition in many ways. sit back, and look at the art in totality. Get submerged in the story and mood of the visual. Each color and each motif holds meaning and importance in creating its ambience. It invites you to become a part of the narrative, and once you are there, move your gaze onto each character of the memoir. talk, interact and resonate with the expression!
You will hear the forests singing, the fish humming, the lotuses blooming, stars twinkling and the cows dancing. Each motif is adorned and embellished with joy and intricacy that brings forth a feeling of celebration. Lose yourself and get swept away by the art, on a spiritual journey, one with yourself, into yourself." - Studio Smitamoksh to TDC

"The ability of the brain to ignore extraneous visual information is critical to how we work and function. more often than not with all the distractions around, we need visual aids to train our brain to cancel out the noise, allowing us time for self reflection and introspection. 'Japa' (repetition) is one such practice. It helps us overcome spiritual darkness by harnessing our body and mind’s subtle energies and aligning them. this happens by constant recollection which resonates with the divinity inside. It is the divine elixir to attain peace and bliss. a recurring and dominant theme through our art." - Studio Smitamoksh to TDC
