Tara Shakti
Tara Shakti is a Malagasy artist based in France, whose work reflects the vibrant cultural heritage of Madagascar and her global artistic journey. Inspired by the rich landscapes and traditions of her homeland, she studied art in Florence, Italy, where she explored the techniques of Renaissance masters. While these classical methods informed her understanding of composition and craftsmanship, Tara has developed a contemporary style that is uniquely her own. Working primarily with oil paints, she creates vivid, emotive pieces that explore themes of transformation, identity, and humanity’s connection to nature.
The recent opportunity to send one of her artworks to the Moon stands as a profound moment in her career. To Tara, this symbolizes the extension of her artistic exploration beyond earthly boundaries, into the vastness of the cosmos. This endeavor aligns perfectly with her belief that art can transcend time and space, touching on universal truths that unite us all. Her work is not just a reflection of her experiences but an invitation to explore the mysteries of existence and the endless potential for change and growth.
