(aka Imagine), Ed.M.'17 is a Nepali artist whose work combines
Sanskrit scripture with graffiti. Known for her wall-sized
installations, Shrestha also makes small paintings that encapsulate
the mindful mantras of her larger works. These works speak to the
Buddhist side of Shrestha's culture, which sees heaven as "...a place
that your mind goes to. And given that calm and clear minds are
probably happy minds, then heaven means attaining happiness...".
Although Sneha Shrestha's lyrical text paintings are small in scale
compared to her large graffiti works, they project a sense of joy and
ingenuous clarity that belies their diminutive size.
