In the quaint and culturally vibrant community of Auroville resides a creative force like no other – Supriya Menon Meneghetti. With a passion for artistic expression that spans over three decades, Supriya has carved her niche as a multidisciplinary artist, with ceramics being her primary canvas.

The Evolution of an Artist

Supriya's journey into the world of art began in 1994 when she delved into the realm of ceramics as a student at the renowned Golden Bridge Pottery in Pondicherry. Since then, her artistic odyssey has been a kaleidoscope of experiences – from honing her craft as an independent artist to imparting her knowledge as a teacher.

Over the years, Supriya's repertoire expanded beyond ceramics, encompassing diverse forms of expression, including painting and the delicate art of Ikebana flower arrangement. Each facet of her artistic exploration adds depth and dimension to her creations, resulting in a body of work that is as eclectic as it is profound. 

A Fusion of Life and Art

What sets Supriya's work apart is its deeply personal nature, intricately woven with threads of femininity and reverence for nature. Her creations serve as a reflection of her life experiences, encapsulating moments of joy, introspection, and resilience.

Incorporating elements of Ikebana into her ceramic artistry, Supriya brings a harmonious balance between form and function, infusing her pieces with a sense of organic beauty and tranquility. The result is a mesmerizing interplay of textures, colors, and shapes that captivate the senses and stir the soul.

A Curator of Creativity

Today, Supriya wears many hats within the artistic community of Auroville. As the head of the pottery studio at Maroma, she continues to inspire budding artists and enthusiasts alike, nurturing a culture of creativity and collaboration.

In addition to her role at Maroma, Supriya is also a prolific curator, spearheading exhibitions that showcase the richness and diversity of contemporary ceramic art. From 'Out of the box' in Faenza, Italy, to 'True Blue - The water faithful' in Pondicherry, her curated showcases have garnered acclaim both nationally and internationally.

Supriya Menon Meneghetti's journey through the realms of ceramics and beyond is a testament to the boundless possibilities of artistic expression. With each creation, she invites us to embark on a visual and emotional voyage, inviting us to connect with the essence of life itself. 

As she continues to push the boundaries of her craft, Supriya reminds us of the transformative power of art – to inspire, to heal, and to transcend the constraints of time and space. In her hands, clay becomes a medium for storytelling, a vessel for memories, and a testament to the enduring spirit of human creativity.
