作者及展覽簡介

戴海霞(Harsha Dass)女士是印度台北協會戴國瀾(Gourangalal Das)會長的夫人，在臺灣期間，不僅融入本地生活學習中文對話，更發掘了在印度從未觸及的水墨畫，讓她的藝術版圖從油畫和混合媒材擴大到中華傳統丹青繪畫。此外，她也喜歡用相機捕捉臺灣各地美景並探索當地藝術。

戴海霞女士在來臺之前任職於印度鐵路公司負責員工管理和人力資源相關工作，也曾在印度財政部任職。她來自印度東部城市蘭契，在德大的芮姆女子學院以及新德里的賈瓦哈拉爾尼赫魯大學研讀歷史。她也曾在印度德里和加爾各答擔任公職，並隨先生派駐過北京和華盛頓特區等地。

關於本展

這個花鳥國畫展是戴海霞女士在臺三年的學習回顧展，她期望藉此畫展聊表她對臺灣朋友感懷的心，回報這三年她在臺灣獲得滿盈的愛與關懷。戴海霞女士表示，她對水墨畫的涉略純屬偶然，機緣巧合下有幸在臺灣結識並師從知名藝術家王智子老師，向她學習作畫的筆觸、材料和技法，更探究畫藝術背後的哲學。而這些畫匯集了她對語言、歷史和藝術的熱愛，賦予無窮的快樂和平靜，也反映了她對臺灣的印象。在臺灣的旅程已接近尾聲，即將向這片土地和它的人民告別，她想透過這些畫作向臺灣致敬，感謝臺灣讓她的生活充滿「鳥語花香」。

Introduction to the Painter and Exhibition

Harsha Dass

Harsha has been living in Taiwan since July 2020 as a homemaker to her husband, Director General of India-Taipei Association Gourangalal Das, and their two schoolgoing children. Besides conversational Mandarin, Chinese ink painting is a skill that she got exposed to and learnt during her stay in Taiwan, helping expand her artistic canvas beyond oil and mixed media. She also enjoys photography and likes to explore Taiwan's landscape and its arts.

Professionally, Harsha is a senior executive with the Indian Railways responsible for the organization's employees and human resources, and served in India's Ministry of Finance before arriving in Taiwan. She grew up in the Eastern Indian city of Ranchi and studied history at Lady Shri Ram College and Jawaharlal Nehru University in New Delhi. She has worked in Delhi and Kolkata in India, and has lived in Beijing and Washington DC among other cities.

About the exhibition

My discovery of Chinese ink painting was a matter of chance, made possible by the opportunity to meet and train in Taiwan under accomplished artist Jyn-Tzy Wang, who is a living storehouse of lost knowledge and timeless wisdom, embodying and carrying forward a rich legacy of traditional techniques and skills. It is in the guru-shishya tradition of India that I have studied with her, learning from her not just brushstrokes, material and techniques but also imbibing the philosophy behind the art.

The paintings brought together my love for language, history and the arts, giving me immense joy and peace, and serving as a prism through which I will continue to view and project Taiwan to others. As we prepare to bid farewell to this land and its people, they are a personal tribute to you for filling my life with the fragrance of flowers and the chirping of birds.
