Rekha Rao Hebbar studied painting under her eminent artist father K K Hebbar and holds a post graduate in History, Bombay University. Her paintings are an inter-play of visual experiences gleaned from her surroundings. They are a conflation of association. The search is for a grammar of colours which will effectively illuminate her response towards events and happenings that serve as a trigger. She works on paper and canvas. Rekha’s works are in the collection of National Gallery of Modern Art (NGMA), Mumbai , Lalit Kala Akademi , New Delhi. Singapore National Museum, Fukuoka Gallery Japan and Venkatappa Gallery Bengaluru besides several private collectors.
