The Art Inspired Goa Studio presents “Soft Harmony,” a solo exhibition by noted Goan contemporary artist Ajay Kothawale, opening on 14th April 2026 at 5:00 PM at Ujwal Art Gallery. The exhibition will be inaugurated by Chief Guest Janette Hughes and will remain on view until 23rd April 2026.
“Soft Harmony” encapsulates Kothawale’s mature artistic vision, shaped by decades of rigorous practice and extensive national and international exposure. The exhibition brings together a compelling body of work that explores the delicate balance between form, emotion, and narrative. Through a refined interplay of color palettes, textures, and symbolic imagery, the artist constructs a visual language that is both introspective and universally resonant.
The works displayed reveal a seamless transition between figuration and abstraction, where everyday subjects are reimagined through a contemporary lens. Whether through evocative compositions or intricately detailed surfaces, Kothawale invites viewers into a contemplative space—one that reflects on harmony not merely as an aesthetic principle, but as an experiential and emotional state.
His inclusion of diverse mediums and subjects, ranging from expressive figurative forms to stylized object-based representations, demonstrates a versatile command over technique and concept. Each artwork stands as an independent narrative while contributing to the overarching theme of equilibrium and coexistence.
Having exhibited widely across India and internationally in countries such as Japan, Brazil, and the United Kingdom, Kothawale continues to position his work within a global contemporary context while remaining deeply rooted in his cultural sensibilities. His practice reflects an ongoing dialogue between tradition and modernity, making his work both relevant and engaging to a wide audience.
“Soft Harmony” promises to be a significant addition to Goa’s vibrant art calendar, offering art enthusiasts, collectors, and the general public an opportunity to experience a thoughtfully curated exhibition that celebrates both artistic depth and visual sensitivity. The exhibition will be open daily from 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM at Ujwal Art Gallery.
