Hello!
I am Vidushi
( मैं विदुषी हूं )
I am an artist, though for the longest time, I didn’t think I had the right to call myself one. Being an artist who strives for perfection while also being dyslexic is, frankly, a bit of an oxymoron. It meant holding back, second-guessing every word, every brushstroke, the anxiety of which was constant and loud.
For a while, I tried to mute that voice by pretending to be something else. A lawyer, no less. Sensible. Predictable. Structured. But art found its way back, and eventually, I gave in.
To survive that leap, I had to let go of perfectionism. I had to unlearn the idea that flawlessness equals worth.
That’s when I discovered sprezzatura, the art of the purposeful mistake, the subtle wink that says, “Yes, I meant to do that.” It felt like my own version of a nazar ka tika, a charm to keep my work from being too burdened by its own seriousness.
And then came kintsugi, the golden repair. The idea that brokenness can be beautiful, that healing is not something to hide but something to highlight.
These two ideas now live at the heart of what I make. I work in mixed media, a natural fit for someone who collects fragments, who stitches together stories from scraps. Imperfection isn’t something I fix anymore. It’s something I follow.
