Nepal, March 17 -- Have you ever observed the street art in the alleys of Patan? Some of these striking street art paintings were created by Nikhil Bahadur Shakya, also known as Dotts1235. Shakya takes inspiration from the historic sites of Mangal Bazaar, Patan, to create both vibrant murals and contemplative black-and-white works in his first solo exhibition, 'Journey to a Visionary Artworld', at Siddhartha Art Gallery.

The exhibit showcases 50+ works that express personal discovery, ancestral influences, and his ongoing quest for renewal and transformation. This exhibition illustrates the seamless way through which the artist merges inner reflection, cultural connection, and the continually shifting energy of our modern society.
