I am Ishan Pariyar, the Boat Artist, hailing from Baglung, Nepal, and currently residing in vibrant Kathmandu. While my artistic identity is anchored in painting, I draw inspiration from my love for travel and photography. In my artwork, the recurring motif of a waterboat serves as a poignant reflection of my childhood, encapsulating vivid memories and formative experiences. Beyond mere representation, the boat becomes a profound metaphor, symbolizing life's journey, acceptance, and the diverse facets of existence. Through each canvas stroke, I strive to contribute to the art world, weaving narratives that resonate with viewers, prompting reflection on their own unique journeys and the significance of the humble waterboat.
