The phenomenal artist has made several pieces of art over the years and has exhibited the same at many prestigious exhibitions both in India and international market as well. She strongly believes that, “if a country is given carbon credit for low emission, then why can't an individual also be accredited ?” This is a clear evidence of a unique approach she holds toward artwork. Neelu Patel says. ''Inspiration arises within a fraction of a second and even you don't know, that your existence is going to dissolve in the beautiful outcome of it. That is inspiration to me and it struck me instantly when I thought of nurturing the idea through paper-mache''.

The exhibition celebrates Neelu's art and investigates what prompted her to tackle the serious issue of environment preservation, what has been accomplished by her in past and what future plans she hold. Painting is just another way of communicating !
