About this catalog
Ritu Raj is a contemporary abstract painter based in Phoenix, Arizona, working from a dedicated studio since 2020. Before painting full-time, he founded Avasta (cloud computing), SideCar (ride-sharing), and Diamond Foundry. His work spans six collections and two signature techniques: Abstract Inquiry and Organic Movement.
The collections
Abstract Inquiry - oil and acrylic paintings made through sustained attention. Includes the Ferrari Capsule, stepwell works, philosophical pop paintings, and large-format inquiry works.
Organic - thread released over paint. Ritu's signature technique: the hand relinquishes control and the material finds its own path. 56 works spanning fire, water, orbit, emergence, and surrender.
Ephemeral - atmospheric painting in acrylic. Weather, cosmos, memory, and the quality of light. 64 works from intimate to extra large.
Geometric - colour inside structure. Bold geometric painting including Rangoli in Permanence and works on sacred geometry and Indian heritage.
Black and White - monochrome painting at full scale. Diptychs, landscapes, and architectural works.
Out of Darkness - oil painting from a near-black ground. Luminous passages emerging from dark fields.
