Artist Vishali Bawa Padma Shri Shri Bhalu Mondhe shared, "I have known Vishali for a long time now and seen her grow as a person and as an artist. She is a huge repository of empathy which helps her see through the layers of human emotions. Prismatic is an embodiment of Vishali's core." Vishali Bawa said, "A person's emotional strength is often defined by their ability to portray a strong front no matter how they feel. We live in a world mired by societal prejudices, constantly nudging us to suppress our feelings or, at the very least, replace the genuineness of our emotions with superficiality. This, in turn, can be detrimental to our mental well-being. I intend to provide my audience the space and time to introspect and tune in to their inner voice, to understand, accept, address, and express how they feel when they see an artwork. Through my artworks, the beholders will be transported into a world where they can experience, concede to, and celebrate their emotions." Vishali received her Master's degree in Strategic Design and Management from Parsons School of Design, New York (The New School), consistently ranked one of the best institutions for art and design education in the United States and the world. Before that, she received her Bachelor's in Applied Arts from Sir J.J. School of Art, Mumbai, an esteemed art institution in India affiliated with the University of Mumbai. She has previously worked on various Design and strategy projects for renowned organizations such as Endeavor (NY), WaterAid America (NY), Terreform1 (NY), and Leo Burnett (IN).
