“At artist Niyamat Mehta’s studio Atelier Della Firenze in Delhi, Salvador Dali’s faces rest, casted in bronze and hydro resin. The twin sculptures exhibit the concept of ‘Lila’ – the divine play of creation and dissolution.

The surrealist painter and printmaker is, in fact, one of the biggest inspirations for the 24-year-old artist who is making big waves in the world of art and sculpting. Mehta also draws from the interplay between consumerism and artistic expression, channelling elements of surrealism influenced by Leonora Carrington and Man Ray.”
