Hiral Chaudhuri grew up in Surat (Gujarat). He migrated to the city for higher education but reminiscence the village life that he misses. His works merge the rural and urban spaces. For instance, the idea of decorating urban homes using wall paper intrigued Chaudhuri and got reminded of his village home and walls that have a natural texture and character. His current series is a cluster of small-format works, each with colourful render of a village-life icon but layered with elements from his contemporary city-life. Socio-economic disparity of our times and migration is reflected strongly in his work. His personal quest to balance between his roots and career lead him to wonder about his own journey of enlightenment.
Hiral Chaudhari completed his 5 years diploma in applied art in 2020 and moved on to the MS University, Baroda for his Masters in Printmaking. He has done multiple art group shows.
