Born in 1946, Vijay Kiyawat is a recognised contemporary artist celebrated for his distinctive watercolours. His paintings are adorning the walls of corporates like Goldman Sachs, and art lovers in Australia, Brazil, Dubai, Germany, Guyana, Japan, Singapore, Switzerland, Unites States, and of course India.

An IIT-trained engineer and corporate CEO for over four decades, Kiyawat embraced his artistic journey later in life, drawing on a unique fusion of analytical precision and creative expression.

Kiyawat’s artistic foundation was shaped through mentorship under esteemed artists including Manish Pushkale, Vasundhara Tewari Broota, Late Surinder Kaur, and Rajesh Sharma in Delhi, Julie Cohn in Berkeley, California, and Raymond Yap at NAFA-Singapore.

His works reflect an enduring connection with nature, influenced by the lush gardens, trees, and flowers of Delhi. Describing watercolour as his “spiritual medium,” Kiyawat’s paintings resonate with optimism, serenity, and a touch of surrealism. His inspirations stem from literature, his extensive travels, and the study of nature. His compositions weave narratives and philosophies, inviting viewers into a world of soft, vibrant colours and intriguing mysteries. Admirers of his art affectionately refer to them as “Happy Paintings,” a testament to their uplifting impact.

Kiyawat’s works have been exhibited nationally and internationally. Notably, the AIFACS and Camlin have showcased his art multiple times through national competitions, and his participation in senior artists’ camps organised by AIFACS further highlights his stature in the art community. His solo exhibitions span New Delhi, Mumbai, and Singapore, while his group shows have reached audiences in India, London, the United States, and Singapore.

In 2014, his exhibition at the India Habitat Centre in New Delhi was featured in their annual journal.

His dedication to promoting art extends to his nomination as a Member-General Council of Sahitya Kala Parishad (SKP), an academy of the Delhi Government. Through his art, Vijay Kiyawat exemplifies the harmonious blending of analytical precision and boundless creativity, leaving an indelible mark on the contemporary art world.

Beyond painting, Kiyawat is a passionate pianist and avid birdwatcher.
