Vipul Kumar – Studio Visit

Our journey to the heart of Vipul Kumar’s sculpture studio was nothing short of inspiring. Nestled in the rural landscape of Kothputli, Rajasthan, the studio exudes a sense of calm that reflects in Vipul’s works — earthy and tactile.

Visiting an artist’s studio offers a rare opportunity to witness the magic behind the finished artwork. For us at Art Explore, it’s essential to see the process firsthand — understanding the materials, tools, and inspiration that shape an artist’s practice. It bridges the gap between artwork and context, helping us tell a deeper, more authentic story to our collectors and audience.

From the artist’s perspective, the studio is more than just a workspace; it’s a sanctuary of creative expression. Vipul shared his journey of working with clay — the challenges, breakthroughs, and experiments that unfold away from the spotlight. These insights bring us closer to his philosophy, allowing us to engage more meaningfully with his artistic journey.

Moments like these remind us that art isn’t just about what we see in galleries, it’s about appreciating the unseen layers of thought, labour and emotion.
