Vinay Jalla Exhibits at MASA-UK gallery

The end of 2025 marks a landmark moment in Vinay Jalla's journey as an emerging artist in the North West: five of his artworks were selected and exhibited at the MASA-UK Art Gallery as part of the ArtX Biennale 2025.

Every Artwork Has a Story

Every piece of art carries a story, sometimes whispered, sometimes boldly declared. Often, that story isn’t just about what you see on the surface, but about what the artwork asks you to feel. "Mouse / Big Heart" began with a simple idea: potential is not measured by size.

Vinay Jalla had the privilege of hosting his first solo art exhibition recently. What made it even more special was that it was created without spending a penny.

MEET THE "BANANA ARTIST"

Vinay Jalla is known as the "Banana Artist". Through his signature Ripening Stages of a Banana watercolour series, he blends environmental passion, food culture, and artistic vision. From the first green peel to the golden ripeness, from kitchen muffins to compost bins, Vinay’s art invites us to reconsider the everyday banana in all its and life stages.

Old Shoes Never Bite

'Old Shoes Never Bite' is a warm watercolour study of a pair of worn leather shoes, symbolising familiarity and trust.

Drawing on the old adage, the painting reflects ideas of gratitude and loyalty. A reminder not to forget the people or things that once supported us, even as new paths open up.

Through soft tones and gentle detail, Vinay Jalla celebrates what is dependable and unpretentious: what we know well, and what will never turn on us.
