About Artist
Akshita Lad
Ms. Akshita Lad is an award-winning artist, honored with the prestigious UAE Golden Visa by the Ministry of Arts and Culture for her contributions to the art world. Born in Mumbai and now based in Dubai, her passion for painting began in childhood, inspired by the works of Da Vinci, Monet, Michelangelo, and Rembrandt.
After earning a degree in Business and Finance from Boston University and working in real estate development, Ms. Lad returned to her true calling — art. She refined her skills at the Florence Design Academy and the Lotus Educational Institute in Dubai, developing a distinctive style that blends traditional techniques with modern sensibilities. Her work spans portraits, landscapes, and abstract expressionism, characterized by vibrant colors, rich textures, and themes of inclusion, joy, and positivity.
Ms. Lad has received several international awards, including the Artistic Luminary Award (Dubai, 2024), the Botticelli International Prize (Italy, 2024), and the Contemporary Art Collectors Global Consciousness Prize (2023). She will also be honored with the Masterful Mind Award by the Circle Foundation for the Arts in October 2024.
Her artwork has been exhibited at leading art fairs and galleries worldwide, including the Art Expo New York, Red Dot Miami Art Basel, World Art Dubai, and the Women in Art Fair London. Upcoming exhibitions include shows in Italy, Qatar, London, Austria, and Mumbai.
Beyond her artistic achievements, Ms. Lad is a passionate advocate for girls’ education, nature conservation, and the transformative power of feminine energy — values that are deeply reflected in her work.
