My Story
Hi, I’m Madhuri. I never liked those 'do not touch' signs in art galleries – so I make art you can play with. I’m self-taught, so rules? Nah, I prefer messy creativity. I use discarded stuff like cassette tapes, coffee grounds, cycle rims – turning junk into stories. Sometimes projects flop, sometimes they sing. I care about mental health too, making art a safe place for feelings. Painting bins with a friend, laughing, that’s my kind of magic.
My Work
Custom Art Installations & Commissions - I make interactive art installations for cafes, homes, events, plus unique upcycled paintings and commissions.
Upcycled Art Workshops & Retreats - Join me for workshops using cassette tapes, coffee, clay, fluid art – hands-on, sustainable, and playful.
Interactive Murals & Soundscapes - Touch, play, help create giant coloring book walls or sound installations from vinyls. Creativity for everyone.
Art for Mental Health & Community - My art talks about wellbeing, emotions, and connection. Workshops or murals, it’s about healing and expression.
For Curious Folks & Businesses - Perfect for anyone wanting to explore creativity, or businesses seeking soulful, sustainable art that stands out.
