Rajul’s significant ongoing project, “Kintsugi Chakras”, encapsulates her sustained exploration of restoration, resilience, and the metaphysics of energy. She states, “My geometric abstract expressions offer a distinctive visual language that merges Kintsugi, chakric symbolism, and inquiries into the balance of energy within the human body. My work in Color Fields evokes the Chakras, and luminous golden angular lines that hold fragmented structures together — metaphors for renewal and the sublimated reconstruction of brokenness.”

She continues, “Thick, gradually shifting layers of color and texture create a sculptural two-dimensionality that dematerializes light while amplifying the reflective qualities of gold leaf, echoing the philosophy of Japanese Kintsugi. Through this methodology, I document emotional and physical resilience as an evolutionary process beyond conscious choice, considering the limits of medical intervention while affirming an inherent energetic phenomenon in the healing process.”

Rajul also informs us, “My oeuvre synthesizes influences from Rothko and Raza, dissolving the divide between Eastern and Western artistic thought, and reflects my identity shaped by Indian origins, US upbringing, Japanese study, and my dual base in Singapore and the United States — a transitive, global lens that imbues my work with universal resonance.”
