Jayasri Burman is a contemporary Indian painter and illustrator known for her lyrical, myth‑infused works that blend figurative grace with poetic abstraction. Based in India, she often draws on mythology, folklore, and the natural world, creating canvases populated by floating figures, floral motifs, and dreamlike compositions. Her palette is frequently soft and pastel‑inflected, evoking a gentle, storybook atmosphere.

Her paintings have appeared in group and solo exhibitions across India, appealing to collectors and audiences who appreciate poetic, narrative‑driven abstraction within Indian modern and contemporary art. For those seeking work that balances mythology, femininity, and lyrical colour, Jayasri Burman offers a compelling presence.
