"Art as Healing:
A Physician’s Perspective"
Hi…
I am Vasu!
Bridging the Gap Between Art and Medicine
My dual background in medicine and art allows me to see the world through a unique lens—one where science meets creativity, where logic meets emotion, and where healing meets expression. Each piece I create carries an underlying message of hope and transformation, reinforcing the idea that art, much like medicine, has the power to heal.
As you explore my collection, I invite you to not just see the colors and forms, but to feel them—to experience the emotions, the stories, and the healing energy embedded within each piece. Whether you are a fellow artist, a medical professional, or someone seeking comfort through art, I hope my work serves as a reminder of the beauty and strength within us all.
Join the Journey
Art is more than a visual experience; it is a journey of the soul. I welcome you to explore my gallery, follow my artistic journey, and embrace the healing power of creativity. Together, let’s celebrate the profound connection between medicine and art, and how it shapes our understanding of life, health, and human resilience.

In addition to painting, I write ekphrastic poetry as another way to express the emotions and stories imbued in my work. Exhibitions and collaborations with fellow artists have allowed me to connect with others who share a similar passion, and over the years, my art has been honored with numerous accolades.Donations
