Srishti Bahl is an emerging artist from India who studied painting at the School of Art Institute of Chicago. She is interested in the existential quest of what faith means. Having grown up in a culture of many myths and legends of Hindu gods, she is searching for the truth in those stories and finding her own answers in the awareness of breath and body as she paints almost in a stream of consciousness allowing the works itself to reveal to her the truth of her own being.
