New Art Gallery Brings a Pop of Color to Blakely Hall

The newly opened exhibition, 'Out of My Mind – Imaginative Art by Vikram Madan,' at Blakely Hall, presents a vibrant collection of works that blend humor and whimsy, having opened on July 1, 2023. Seattle-based artist and author Vikram Madan aims to rekindle a sense of innocence through his colorful paintings. The gallery showcases between 20 and 30 pieces, some available for purchase, inviting art lovers to enjoy a joyful escape this summer. Although Blakely Hall is closed for children's camps during the summer, the exhibition can be viewed during community events, such as Open Mic & Karaoke Night and the Global Grub & Groove series. Vikram's transition from the tech industry to professional artistry illustrates his courage in pursuing his passion.

His works are featured in various local shows and exhibitions around Seattle. This exhibition serves as a timely reminder of the importance of art in community life, running from July to September. Attendees can enjoy the light-heartedness of Vikram's art while supporting local culture.
