Runima Kakoty to Debut New Collection at StART in London this October

About

Originally from Assam, India, Runima first trained as a graphic designer. She has been painting and exhibiting locally, nationally and internationally for more than two decades, and her paintings are now on display everywhere from Maharajah’s palaces to corporate boardrooms.

The majority of her exhibitions have been held to raise funds for charity, including those which support people affected by cancer as well as UNICEF. This year will be her first time exhibiting at StART Art Fair, now celebrating its tenth anniversary at London’s iconic Saatchi Gallery. The fair remains committed to exhibiting both emerging and established artists and galleries from around the world.

Runima has a vibrant semi abstract style of painting and colour plays a dominant part in her art, across her work in oils, acrylics and watercolours. As an active member of Chelsea Arts Club, Runima regularly takes part in club shows and activities in SW3.

Curator Catherine Sweet, Founder of BobCat Gallery, says: “Embracing the hues that connect her to her Indian roots and memories of her homeland forms a dominant part in Runima’s practice. Runima has a vibrant semi-abstract style of painting and viewers will find a kaleidoscope of expression in her works, communicated with minimal but expressive brush strokes. I look forward to presenting this fantastic collection at the Fair this year.”
