Raj Naik is a celebrated contemporary artist renowned for his strikingly powerful and dynamic abstract paintings. Originally from India, Raj now lives and works in Los Angeles with his wife and two children.

Raj’s work is deeply influenced by his cultural roots and an affinity for balance—a principle that resonates throughout his compositions. Drawing inspiration from Eastern artistic movements such as Dansaekhwa, known for its meditative minimalism, and Gutai, celebrated for its avant-garde experimentation, Raj bridges tradition and innovation with a distinctly modern sensibility.

His large-scale abstracts are a masterclass in contrast, tension, and harmony, often marked by bold textures, sweeping gestures, and a rhythmic interplay of form and color. With an intuitive approach to process and material, Raj invites viewers into an immersive exploration of energy and equilibrium.
