Hi, welcome to my website. My name is Nimit Shah. I am an artist, architect and musician residing in Mumbai, India. My artworks are organized across different pages on this link which is a portal specifically to showcase my art. My practice so far includes paintings, sculptures, paper collage, animation, lighting design, penwork, paperfolding and art installations. Below on this page, I have organized acrylic paintings on canvas and wooden sculptures. Please take your time to explore this link which in a way could be considered a map of my creative mind.

In my sculptures, I like to capture a hint/idea of motion, a sense of dynamism (passage of time) even in stillness. A dancer moves to the rhythm, in rapture, having completely surrendered to the music, her body flowing with the sound. A guitarist playing a melody, a song which encapsulates the way I feel. These sculptures were inspired by moments which overwhelm me when music is truly felt.
