4th – 18th June 2026

Ipshita D.W Meyer’s solo exhibition Systems and Souls address the human relationships that live and breathe inside the social and cultural practices within our contemporary communities. She explores the societal (system) customs and human perception (souls) towards it. 

Through her unique art style and design, Ipshita uses symbolism to unearth aspects of social discrimination, cultural norms and practices, as well as the social interactions humans have developed and their relationships towards these long-established habits and traditions. She translates these ideas in her art through storytelling with energetic juxtaposition of bold and vibrant colours, textures and figurative abstractions.

Ipshita has been a finalist for Sir John Hurt Art Prize and simultaneously had her work exhibited at the Holt Art Festival, Holt, England. She was also long listed for Visual Open Art Prize, London and Prisma Art Prize, Italy. Ipshita had her work exhibited at The Big Art Show, Paisley, Scotland, where she won the Renfrewshire Council Award ‘One Ren Health and Wellbeing Award’ and also had her work exhibited for the Luxembourg Art Prize where she received the ‘Certificate of Achievement’ from the Pinacothèque – Luxembourg Art Museum. In 2025 Ipshita was a featured artist for Accord Hospice exploring the themes of joy, love and affection.

With an educational background in social research, Ipshita aims to create artworks that explore the themes of human emotions and social issues. Her artworks are ‘participatory’ in nature that require audiences’ engagement with the pieces, thereby opening up to new views and conversations. Ipshita works with both traditional mediums (watercolours, acrylic, oil and oil pastels) and digital mediums (Procreate with the use of iPad and iPencil) to create visually appealing artworks filled with bold, bright and vibrant colours that are influenced by her cultural heritage.

Systems and Souls runs at Six Foot Gallery from 4th-18th June 2026. Connect with Ipshita on Instagram.
