Tara Sabharwal, 1957 in New-Delhi/Indien geboren, studierte Malerei am Royal College of Art in London. Nach mehreren Jahren in Großbritannien kehrte sie zunächst für drei Jahre zurück nach Indien, um danach acht Jahre lang ein Leben zwischen Delhi, London und New York zu führen. Seit 1998 ist New York, wo sie überwiegend lebt und arbeitet, zum Lebensmittelpunkt geworden. In London und New-Delhi unterhält sie weiterhin ihre Ateliers, die sie regelmäßig aufsucht, um dort zu arbeiten.
Tara Sabharwals Arbeiten sind geprägt vom Leben in drei verschiedenen Welten, Kontinenten und Kulturen. Technisch wie inhaltlich bewegt sie sich zwischen Tradition und Moderne. In Anlehnung an traditionelle indische Kunsttechniken fertigt sie zunächst Monotypien, die sie mit Öl, Acryl und/oder Wasserfarben übermalt. Inhaltlich kennzeichnen klassische indische Symbolik, gepaart mit westlich-modernen Motiven, ihre Arbeiten. Introvertiert, beinahe träumerisch, in einer Art innerer Monolog, setzt sich Tara Sabharwal mit den Realitäten und gesellschaftlichen Problemen ihres Herkunftslandes auseinander. Die Ambivalenz von Geborgenheit und Sicherheit in familiären Strukturen einerseits und die damit verbundenen, Freiheitsdrang und das Streben nach persönlicher Entwicklung behindernden Normen und Zwänge, sind ihr Thema.
Tara Sabharwal subsumiert die Erfahrungen ihres kosmopolitischen Lebens und ihrer persönlichen Entwicklung in ihren Bildern – Widersprüche und Gegensätze verbinden sich zu einem poetischen Neuen.
Seit 1983 sind Tara Sabharwals Werke regelmäßig in Ausstellungen in Indien, Großbritannien und den USA zu sehen. Ihre Arbeiten befinden sich in bedeutenden öffentlichen und privaten Sammlungen, u.a. im Victoria und Albert Museum, London sowie im British Museum, London.
