Raja Segar’s Solo Exhibition ‘Rhythmic Sagas’ Opens in Delhi

IndiGalleria presented Sri Lankan artist Raja Segar’s work in India for the first time with Rhythmic Sagas, a solo exhibition at LTC, Bikaner House, New Delhi. The show opened with a private viewing on 9 October, attended by media and invited guests, followed by an inauguration graced by H E Mahishini Colonne, High Commissioner of Sri Lanka, and artist Arpana Caur as Chief Guests. Curated by Aakshat Sinha, the exhibition showcased Segar’s distinctive cubist interpretations of music, human connection, and daily life. Known for his use of refractive geometry and symbolic figures, Segar’s paintings featured dancers, tea pluckers, and mythic characters. His work has previously been exhibited in Sri Lanka, Australia, Singapore, and the UK. The exhibition formed part of IndiGalleria’s initiative to create more on-ground cultural experiences, following its participation in World Art Dubai.

“With Segar’s first-ever Delhi solo, IndiGalleria aims to open a new chapter of cultural dialogue and artistic appreciation across borders,” said Shashank Maurya, Founder of IndiGalleria. Reflecting on his debut in the capital, Segar said, “Art has always been my way of turning the rhythms of everyday life into something eternal. Whether it is a dancer, a tea plucker, or a god, I try to capture the music that flows within them.

Bringing my work to Delhi for the first time is both an honour and a joy.” Curator Sinha described Segar’s practice as one that “smiles at those who witness it,” calling him “a prolific artist who paints as if it were breathing—daily, tirelessly, joyously.” The exhibition offered Delhi audiences a chance to experience his gods, dancers, and relationships in a vibrant cubist style, carrying tales within every rhythmic line and prism of colour.
