N. Kirubanandham (b. 1975) hails from the serene town of Mayiladuthurai in South India, where idyllic villages steeped in beauty shaped his artistic sensibilities from a young age. Kirubanandham's journey into the realm of art began amidst the backdrop of his school days, where a profound affinity for creativity bloomed into a lifelong passion. 

Kirubanandham's artistic narrative breathes life into rural existence, where the omnipresence of bulls and roosters serves as cultural touchstones. Eschewing human forms, his work honors the belief that every living entity deserves its own spotlight.

These scenes often evoke a nostalgic resonance, reminiscent of childhood memories and visits to ancestral villages. Rooted in tradition yet audaciously abstract, Kirubanandham's artistry delves into the quintessence of nature. His medium becomes a vessel for his dreams and thoughts, weaving traditional motifs with an abstract sensibility that distinctly marks his work. His fascination with village life, tradition, and mythological figures infuses each piece, crafting a visual symphony that both soothes and enchants.

Formally educated in the arts, Kirubanandham earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts in Kumbakonam (1992-1997) and his Master of Fine Arts in Chennai (2011-2013).
