ABOUT RAJUL
Rajul Shah (b. 1968, Mumbai) is a contemporary artist whose artistic formation includes mentorships with Masters in Japan, studies at Temple Tokyo Tyler School of Art and La Salle College of the Arts in Singapore. Her practice, marked by technical rigor and depth, is informed by a previous two decades of work in the healthcare industry, shaping a layered visual philosophy attentive to healing and transformation.
Her work merges Kintsugi, chakric symbolism and inquiries into the balance of energy within the human body. Layered tonalities, and luminous golden angular lines that hold fragmented structures together are metaphors for renewal and the reconstruction of brokenness.
Shah documents emotional and physical resilience as an evolutionary process considering the limits of medical intervention while affirming an inherent energetic phenomenon in the healing process. Her oeuvre is shaped by Indian origins, her US upbringing, Japanese study, and her dual base in Singapore and the US, imbuing her work with universal resonance.
Rajul Shah has exhibited internationally and been featured in Art Seen Magazine (2025) and Create Magazine (2025). Among other awards, Shah's work has also received an Honorable Mention in the Artists Magazine's 42nd Annual Art Competition to be published in January 2026. The artist has also been featured in January 2026 edition of Harper’s Bazaar Singapore.
