Born in 1970 in Thoompally and currently residing in Hyderabad, Pramod Gade Reddy is a talented artist with a rich educational background in the field of fine arts. In 1994, Pramod successfully completed his B.F.A. in Painting from J.N.T.U. College of Fine Arts in Hyderabad, Telangana. Building upon his passion and skills, he pursued further education and attained an M.F.A. in Mural Painting from the Faculty of Fine Arts at M.S. University in Baroda, Gujarat, India, in 1997. With a strong foundation and specialised training, he embarked on a creative journey that continues to evolve and inspire.
Influenced deeply by Hindu Mythology and the captivating narratives it holds, this artist has crafted a distinctive style rooted in his master’s degree studies. His approach involves intricate layering, symbolically mirroring the episodes within the myths. Transparent layers subtly unveil the essence of these events, harmoniously intertwining with text and imagery, a pivotal aspect of his creations. Notably, his artworks feature text in Telugu, specifically divine Veda mantras chanted during worship. The vibrant traditional hues employed in his pieces mirror the essence of mythological representations in Indian art. Within the lines of his artwork, he finds the strength to express his profound emotions and artistic aesthetics, creating a unique and engaging visual narrative.
