About me

Working across watercolour, ink, mixed media, photography and digital illustration, Vinay Jalla's work combines humour, observation and storytelling to create pieces that are both accessible and thought-provoking.

Vinay’s creative journey has evolved alongside a professional background in journalism, digital communications and public engagement, shaping his ability to communicate ideas with clarity and nuance. His work often reflects on themes such as sustainability, human behaviour, food culture, memory and the subtle relationship between people and their surroundings. Through this lens, he seeks to highlight the extraordinary within the ordinary.

A recurring element in his practice is the use of gentle humour as a tool for connection. Whether through a solitary object, a fleeting moment, or a symbolic composition, his artworks invite viewers to pause, reflect and engage with familiar experiences in new ways. His approach is rooted in the belief that art does not need to be exclusive or intimidating; instead, it can be warm, inclusive and quietly reflective.

Vinay has exhibited in group shows across Greater Manchester and beyond, with his work resonating with diverse audiences in both traditional and everyday spaces. His practice continues to evolve through experimentation, curiosity and a desire to create meaningful visual conversations.
