Niyati Jiwani

Georgia based artist Niyati Jiwani creates works that aim to fuse abstraction and themes of nature utilizing color, gesture, and light. 

Born in India, Niyati grew up with a flair and love for art and literature.  She studied and received her bachelor’s and master’s degree in teaching, but always found time to continue her passion for painting.  After moving to U.S., she participated in an art competition which gave her the fuel she needed to further her art endeavors.  Since then, she has embarked on an exploratory journey to learn and experiment with different styles and techniques, with and without the guidance of art mentors, to find her own process and unique style.      

Niyati’s paintings comprise of bold and vibrant colors with a blend of neutral tones to draw in the eye.  Within each work, she hopes the viewers can see a glimpse of her unique process which she describes as filled with intense emotions that lead to a confounding breakthrough where suddenly a ray of hope seems to shine through and bring in the light.   She describes this process as leaving her speechless and she sees her studio space as a place where she translates her imaginary ideas onto canvas. She is constantly working on different series of works inspired by nature, music, and personal experiences.

Niyati has participated in several shows within India and the U.S.
