About the creator
- Gurumahesh Srinivasan. Born in 1976 in Bangalore, India, Gurumahesh Srinivasan is a self-taught contemporary artist who currently lives and works in Dubai. His artistic practice is deeply influenced by the expressive visual language of Cy Twombly and revolves around the concept of the “unfinished line”. A metaphor that reflects both artistic legacy and the human experience. For Srinivasan, the line is not merely a mark on canvas but a continuation of thought, memory, and feeling. Much like Twombly’s scribbles and raw gestures that capture fleeting emotions, his own lines act as narrative threads: sometimes complete, often unresolved. They symbolize the quiet truths we all carry. The paths we begin but never finish, the emotions left unspoken, and the stories that remain incomplete throughout life. Working primarily in mixed media, Srinivasan creates textured, layered compositions where strokes and lines emerge instinctively. His works serve as a deeply personal exploration of memory and emotion, yet they extend an open invitation to viewers to reflect on their own experiences. In this way, his art becomes a dialogue. Connecting the beauty, vulnerability, and resonance of the unspoken and the undone.
Biography
Born in 1976 in Bangalore, India, Gurumahesh Srinivasan is a self-taught contemporary artist currently based in Dubai. His practice is inspired by the expressive visual language of Cy Twombly and centers on the concept of the “unfinished line,” a metaphor that embodies both artistic legacy and the complexity of human experience.
Artistic Statement
For Srinivasan, the line is more than a simple mark. It is a continuation of thought, memory, and feeling. His works often explore the tension between completion and incompletion, reflecting unspoken emotions and unfinished stories. Through instinctive strokes and layered textures, he transforms these “unfinished lines” into narrative threads that speak to the universal truths of vulnerability, silence, and the unresolved.
Practice
Working primarily in mixed media, Srinivasan creates textured, layered compositions where lines and gestures emerge organically. While deeply personal in origin, his work extends an invitation for viewers to engage in their own introspection. His art thus becomes a dialogue. A space where beauty and fragility meet, allowing others to connect with the resonance of the unspoken and the undone.
