As the United Nations marks its 80th anniversary, Indian ceramicist Priya Sundaravalli Sudharsan is turning heads in Auroville with her theme of “Land Protection.” Through serene landscapes painted on ceramic surfaces, she invites us to imagine a world where nature remains undamaged and humans live in harmony with the earth.
Hailing from the international town of Auroville, known for its multicultural spirit, Sudharsan believes art is a universal language that transcends borders and technology. “Art connects people through the heart,” she says. Her work serves as a gentle reminder that we are part of nature's tapestry, not separate from it.
Sudharsan's core message to today's youth is simple but powerful: look inward, discover what your soul truly wants to express, and bring that unique voice into the world. Free yourself from external pressures and let your art – whatever form it takes – become a force for environmental stewardship and social connection.
As global challenges like climate change and land degradation intensify, voices like Sudharsan's offer a fresh perspective. By blending creativity with sustainability, she shows how cultural innovation can play a vital role in protecting our planet for future generations.
