Discover Matrika Art Gallery
Matrika Art Gallery is a contemporary art space established to celebrate creativity, spirituality, and cultural dialogue.
Situated in the serene valleys of Ranikhet, the gallery is dedicated to presenting original works, curated exhibitions, and independent artistic voices.
The gallery was founded by Bharti Papnai and Prakash Papnai (a contemporary Indian artist) with the vision of creating a bridge between tradition and modernity.
At Matrika, exhibitions connect artists, collectors, students, and communities in a shared creative experience.
Our Mission:
• To provide a platform for independent and emerging artists.
• To establish dialogue between nature, tradition, and contemporary art.
• To create a space where art, spirituality, and culture converge.
At Matrika, we believe that art is not merely something to be seen but something to be experienced — like silence, like emotion, and like universal consciousness.
