Abdulla PA

Abdulla PA is a multi-disciplinary artist who completed his BFA in 2021. He was awarded an honourable mention in the State Award category by the Kerala Lalitha Kala Akademi in 2020-21. His works were exhibited at the 50th annual State exhibition, conducted by the Akademi and also in the collateral show of Kochi Biennale, 2022. Motivated by the concepts of biomimicry and biomorphism, Abdulla collects peculiar-looking natural items to study them thoroughly and incorporate their aspects into the fields of art and design while also learning to extend their potential to his profession. The macro world view, presented by him through tiny, unassuming, natural objects, has become a point of discussion in the art milieu and his works are commanding immense interest among art lovers.
