Mekhala Bahl

Mekhala Bahl earned her BFA in printmaking from the Rhode Island School of Design and currently lives in Delhi. She combines materials from acrylic and ink to collage, lithography, etching, and blockprint – often within a single work. Titling an exhibition “Anecdote” (2008), she relates her vocabulary of abstract mark - making to dreams, memories, moments, and short stories. She has experimented with quilting as well as sculpture and installation with candy floss, silk, and blown glass, in a constant effort to push the limits of material and color.
