All, Artist, Sculptor

Ram Kumbhar is an artist who defined his
journey as a sculptor from being a village boy in a
small district to exploring his roots into various
mediums to reach his goal of becoming one.
Belonging to a Kumbhar family that continues a
long-held rich art of pottery making to date, he had
imbibed the culture at an early age. His world
suddenly became more extensive when he
witnessed his first big public sculpture. That
moment inspired him to become a sculptor and
pursue it as a professional medium.
To create pieces that inspired his ideas, Ram
ventured into painting, just to get accepted into JJ
School of Arts into the sculpting program.
Ram sculpts his pieces with strong narratives
around the severe gap between the rural and urban
a lifestyle that reflects in our approach and mindset. With his strong influence of the
earthen life, he tries to bridge a gap to show a reality within the stories encapsulated
through mixed media such as brass, steel, fiberglass, copper, etc.
