Spacescapes
In 2019, Sujata Bajaj happened to come across a NASA image taken from the Hubble telescope showing the Andromeda galaxy. She connected with the photograph without knowing what it actually was. The seed of Spacescapes was planted. She understood that this journey would require the use of new techniques as well as experimentation. Thereafter, she explored other images taken from the James Webb telescope.
The next five years were a period of great involvement in this fresh creation. These paintings are my discoveries during this time period.
The enthusiastic reaction and willingness to engage with the rediscovery of the cosmos through her paintings has reaffirmed her understanding that in the infinity of deep space abstraction and reality are one.
