Illustrationcupboard Gallery is delighted to present a unique collaboration with Tara Books of India, celebrating the publication of their beautiful, silk-screen printed, hand-bound book Drawing from the City by Indian artist, Tejubehan.

Drawing from the City is exquisitely drawn and a spectacular example of contemporary art. Teju's hypnotic faces, striking skylines and landscapes tell the tale of her incredible journey from endemic poverty to the rich, inner realms of art. Teju, a self-taught artist, creates drawings which are at once innocent and complex, gripping the onlooker with her mesmerising combination of lines and dots.

Tara Books is an independent publisher of picture books for adults and children based in Chennai, Southern India. Founded in 1994, Tara Books remains a collective of dedicated writers, designers and artists who strive for a union of fine form and impressive content. Fiercely independent, Tara Books publish a select list of titles which encompasses many genres.

All of the existing, published pen and ink drawings will be exhibited and available for purchase, alongside copies of Drawing in the City.
