Mom Shares Images And Memories From India
When artist Simran Rajani left her native India a decade ago and made the 8,000-mile trek to New Jersey, she left behind the Ravi River, the Nanda Devi Mountain, and the Gengetic Plains.
But she brought the memory of these places with her. Rajani is now sharing these memories with Secaucus through an exhibit of her paintings at the library.
After earning a bachelor’s degree in art back home, Rajani spent her first two years in the United States actively painting, showing her work, and making periodic sales. But, as is the case with many artists, life intervened.
“I did a lot of exhibitions, about seven or eight years ago,” Rajani said. “After my kids were born, though, I didn’t have a lot of time to focus on my art.”
The married mother of two hopes to immerse herself back into her art now that her youngest child is five.
