The Mural Renaissance: Kolor Kathmandu Unleashed
In the heart of Kathmandu, Nepal, a transformative project known as Kolor Kathmandu unfolded. Spearheaded by the Sattya Media Arts Collective, this initiative aimed to metamorphose the city into an open-air gallery, where the modern creative spirit of Nepal harmoniously coexists with the ancient temples that dot its landscape. The canvas? The walls of Kathmandu’s streets.

I am a mural enthusiast and a fervent admirer of street art. Rather than creating murals myself, I am passionate about collecting them. My love for street art knows no bounds. I am dedicated to curating and cherishing these artworks that grace the streets. My collection stands as a testament to my profound appreciation for this form of artistic expression.
