ABOUT US
AZULA CO-FOUNDER PRIYANKA SHAH

Azula

Azula, a haven for artistic expression, takes its name from the dual nature of the blue flame. In our world, art transcends traditional boundaries and embraces the post-modern spirit.

Just as the blue flame, while cooler in the spectrum, is the warmest part of a fire, Azula's creations may seem design-oriented, but they are deeply rooted in concept. This paradox is the essence of Azula.

We believe in the uniqueness and exclusivity of art. Azula emphasizes this by producing only limited edition works. We also offer custom commissions, crafting bespoke, one-of-a-kind pieces tailored to your vision and space.

At Azula, we proudly celebrate India's rich art heritage and strive to nurture this culture. Our art is a catalyst, motivating those outside the art world to take an interest and foster the growth of our artistic community. We collaborate with artisans, the unsung heroes of our enduring art history, ensuring its legacy endures. Welcome to Azula, where art knows no bounds

Priyanka Shah

Priyanka Shah is a visual artist hailing from Ahmedabad and currently based in Mumbai. She earned her Bachelor's in Fine Arts from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2020, with a special focus on sculptor and installation art. Priyanka is the founder of Azula Studios, which operates in both Ahmedabad and Mumbai. Her artistic practice revolves around Formalism, a post-modern art movement that delves into how the formal elements of art, such as size, color, material, and form, impact the viewer's perception. She has created her own unique language of linear and geometric forms.

Priyanka's approach to art is truly holistic, as she considers both the art and the viewers of art as one unit, studying how they influence each other. Her vision for Azula Studios is to engage a broad audience and push the boundaries of art by blending her education at the School of the Art Institute with her Indian heritage and the contributions of the artisans who form the core of the art culture.

— Sol LeWitt

“Indistinctness is my forte”

— J. M. W. Turner
