The Journey Of A Butterfly: Exhibition With Recent Works By Sravanthi Juluri

ADVERTISEMENT
As an Artist Sravanthi Juluri likes to reflect upon different emotions. THE JOURNEY OF A BUTTERFLY is an ode to the bold and free spirited woman to today. The most scared place for Sravanthi is a plain white canvas waiting for her to express her feelings, raise her voice, and tell a story. She has always been facinated by the human mind, and the way we react to different situations around us-pain and anger, happiness and joy.

She loves to use her canvas as a story board and mostly as a tool to spread awareness about the crime comitted against women and the trauma women undergo. She also likes to inspire women and young girls to look for inner strength and find the courage to stand up against the atrocities.

The current works being showcased exposes the inner thoughts and emotions of a woman, releasing her inner strength and letting go of inhibitions - feeling liberated. She explores the world in the form of a butterfly, sipping in the nector of sweet victory!

This is a show dedicated to all the women around us who stood up against the odds and emerged out as butterflies leading a new live.

The exhibition is on show until March 24, 2014.

About the Artist
Ms. Sravanthi Juluri is born and brought up in Hyderabad, India. She did her schooling at Nasr School for girls, Villa Marie girl's junior college, and B. A Arts in from BR. Ambedkar Open University. Her true love for the fine arts began at an early age. She performed in a television dhrama called “Veera Satrajit” at a tender age of 7, and also did the lead role in a television series “Dr. Mamatha” for Doordarshan.

Although she has constantly been experimenting with fine arts since a child, her love for it had intensified after attending art classes in Berkeley, California. She studied Glass arts at the well known Stained Glass Garden and Mountain View academy at Berkeley. She was mesmerised by the glass arts. She took intensive classes under the guidance of many glass artists, and is skilled in the traditional and ancient art of Stained glass painting (Copper foil & lead techniques). She has also learnt the more contemporary forms of glass arts like Glass fusing, mosaic and glass paintings. This training not only gave her a very rare certification from the premiers in the trade, but also gave a crucial direction to the abundant energy and passion this lady possessed.

Her art talks about topics that are very close to her heart, and each work has a deep significance in terms of life and spirituality. Her works reflect upon various social issues, especially related to women, and children. Her work defines different stages of human life, emotionally as well as spiritually, each series of art symbolic in their own way. She expresses raw passions in her works with emphasis being on human feelings and emotional reactions to life, relationships and the environment.

She is the daughter of Mrs. J. Jamuna, a well known legendary cine actress, Former Member of Parliament and a social worker, and Dr.J.V.Ramana Rao, a Retd. Professor of Zoology, she embodies the best sensibilities of their worlds, art and nature. She is a mother to a 5year old son Avish, who has been her strength and motivation to create wonderful works of art. Her brother, Vamsee Juluri is an author for Penguin publications, and is a Professor of Media Studies.
