When art can be so powerful that it takes you back to the earliest memories you can remember as a child, it is worth taking a look at.

The essential qualities of textures, light and shadows have been given great thought to and some of the paintings actually seem to be coming out at you, while others pull you in.

The gallery was filled with art connoisseurs discussing her work and interacting with the artist herself, who is delighted at the response she has received so far. “A lot of people have come and told me that the paintings give them a feeling of actually going back to their childhood and getting happy thoughts. That’s what I intended and I’m glad that people can understand the art,” says Jaya Javeri, whose masterstrokes have earned her adoration and praise in plenty.

Each painting seems to reflect an inner state of mind that is visibly of a wanderer.

She uses colour and light without compromise, which makes it a very bright and airy exhibition. Unlike with a lot of exhibitions that are dark and moody, this is very uplifting.
