Gopal Muni

I don’t paint for pleasure, I paint because I can’t live without it.

My name is Gopal Muni, I was born in 1992 in the Caucasus, Russia.

Studied art aesthetics and philosophy in 2014-2015/2017 with artist-sculptor Akhilesh Kumar Rai in Varanasi, India

Since 2023 Student (Freie Kunst, Diploma) at Hochschule Für Künste Bremen in Prof. Stephan Baumkötter class.

I started my creative journey in 2014 and after that art became the meaning of my life. My works are made using the expressionist technique under the influence of different emotional moods and lived experiences. The themes of my art range from landscapes, brief moments of moods, emotions of lived events, simple abstractions, sketches of portraits, to political statements. I am always experimenting with various materials, formats and techniques, I never settle on one thing, painting methods and ways of expressing myself are endless for me.

Art for me is something like a personal diary, because the process of creating each painting forces you to go thru many thoughts, experiences and feelings in a short moment of time, allowing you to rethink the way how you look at the world, perceive things around you and within you.
