Nazish Hassan working in her studio

Nazish Hassan is an emerging Indian artist and illustrator based in Delhi. She holds a Diploma in Fine Arts from the National Institute of Fine Arts, Greater Kailash, and a Bachelor of Arts from Delhi University, where she later returned as a visiting faculty member. Working in acrylics and oils on canvas, Nazish explores botanical, animalier, landscape, pop, and surreal themes. Her process is research-driven and she immerses herself in the subject before translating it onto canvas, building a bridge between reality and her inner imaginative world. Her work has been exhibited at the Indian Habitat Centre, the Indian Art Fair, AIFACS, and internationally through Avra Marketing, New Jersey. She is represented by Hacoco Art, New Delhi.

From the Studio

Nazish Hassan painting in her studio Studio table with paintings and materials Nazish Hassan working on a canvas in the studio Gallery wall featuring works by Nazish Hassan Exhibition wall with selected works by Nazish Hassan

Every painting begins with research. Before a brushstroke touches the canvas, Nazish immerses herself in the subjects she paints — the animals, the ruins, the botanicals — building a world in her mind before translating it in vivid colour.
