Web 3 Artist Spotlight: Get to know SoulCurryArt | Ishita Banerjee! (Episode 37)

This episode of the Web 3 Artist Spotlight was broadcast live via X on Friday, March 15, 2024.

In this episode, hosts Jancarlo and Jenifer, interviewed Ishita Banerjee, the brilliant mind behind Soul Curry Art. Ishita is an artist, dreamer, abstract and color addict with a Bachelors in Fine Arts (BFA) degree in Applied Arts and a Masters in Fine Arts (MFA) in Communication Design. Her art is an assimilation of her life experiences, merging imagination and memory to create vivid and bold abstracts, people, faces and non traditional portraiture, rendered in strong color, motifs and details. The style is often described as Mad Men Modern. Inspired by simple shapes, unusual color schemes, whimsical lines and pop art.

During this great conversation, we explored the intersection of life, emotions, and abstract art. Ishita shared her journey, from her classical fine art training to creating vivid, bold abstracts that merge imagination with memory. We discussed the challenges she faced pursuing art in an Indian family, how she developed her unique style, and her creative process. Tune in for insights into her notable collections like ‘Color Reverberance’ and ‘Beast’ and learn how she blends traditional and digital techniques. We also dove into topics like the artist-collector relationship, her biggest challenges, and upcoming projects for 2024.

Since the episode Ishita did a collaboration with CoinCoffee launching a coffee featuring her amazing artwork. Also, the movie we could not recall was The Imitation Game starring Benedict Cumberbatch.
