Harmeet Singh (b. 1965) Lives and works in New Chandigarh, India.
The Evolution of Practice Harmeet Singh’s artistic practice is the culmination of three decades of rigorous engagement with the Indian landscape. While his professional trajectory initially traversed the domains of medicine and public administration, his visual inquiry remained constant: a sustained investigation into the structure of silence and the phenomenology of perception.

From Observation to Abstraction For years, Singh’s travels across the diverse topographies of India served as a period of deep observation. It was during this time that the foundational dialectic of his work emerged—the tension between the chaotic density of the organic world and the internal need for stillness. This friction led him away from representational landscape painting toward a "Post-Digital" abstraction, where the physical gesture of the hand serves as a counter-narrative to the algorithmic precision of the contemporary image.

Studio Irises & Methodology Today, Singh works from Studio Irises, his purpose-built sanctuary in New Chandigarh. Here, the studio acts as a laboratory for material experimentation. Moving between the fluidity of wet-on-wet watercolors and the structural resistance of heavy-body acrylics, Singh treats the painting process as performative. His work is not a depiction of a scene, but a documentation of an event—the collision of pigment, water, and gravity.

Global Context Singh’s work has been exhibited in institutional and private galleries across India and the UK. His upcoming solo exhibition at the Royal Watercolour Society Gallery, London (2026) marks a significant expansion of his practice into the European dialogue on contemporary abstraction. His works are held in private collections in India, Europe, and the UK.
