Divine Guidance (2024) by Rhea Maheshwari

ABOUT RHEA MAHESHWARI

Rhea Maheshwari is an Indian and New Zealand artist notable for her colour palette of blues and purples coloured dreamscapes. She primarily creates large-scale ornamental paintings that resemble tapestries.

Maheshwari's compositions often feature geometric frameworks overlaid with organic elements such as flora, fauna, and mythological figures, creating richly detailed dreamscapes that explore psycho-spiritual themes.

Maheshwari also draws inspiration from 17th- and 18th-century Mughal miniatures, especially their decorative and ornamental elements.

Her academic excellence has been recognised through several awards, including the Board's Choice in the Eden Arts Art School Award, the Joint Overall Winner of the Eden Arts Young Artists Award, and the Gordon Harris Award for Excellence in Visual Arts.
