SRITHISHA REDDY (2015-19, ECE) OUR PRESENT PRESIDENT One of the hardest things to do is to explain one’s feelings, the unspoken words. We make use of different languages to express, one such languages are ‘ART’ to reveal, heal, transfigure. My interest towards ART has started with my emotion, where I was completely weak, impotent, began to lose pieces and pieces of myself. I order to revitalise myself, I started a unique way of painting called Spray Painting. Within one to two months I could master in it. The fumes, each and every stroke gives me energy; dripping oils, wiping brushes wipes all my hidden tears and emotions. Finally, it gave me an evolution, an uplift from darkness to blazing light and dazzling brilliance. With this vehemence, ardour I entered in to ARTISTA, the art club of GNITS in 2017, Ms. Vyshanavi was our President. During our college fest they gave me a chance to perform a live spray painting. Initially I was not confident enough, but with the encouragement from our club I could complete two paintings within 30 minutes. One of the paintings was EYE painting, which expresses an eye, global warming and national flag. Brought me fame, stardom, and later Spray painting has become my passion. And people started addressing me as ‘SPRAY PAINTING AKKA’. The following year, I was the President, and Aparna ma’am was our in charge. Our club has 7 EB members, 45 coordinators. Everyone has a specific and defined role. Aparna ma’am, she encouraged us, and was very supportive. One day, in a meeting she asked us to bring hidden talents from students which can later become their career. With that word we came with the idea of conducting a Spray Painting workshop. The workshop was a hit, participation was huge. For coordinators selection, we conducted interviews, depending on their interest and passion for arts we selected. The achievements of our club are because of combined effort, togetherness of each individual. I can talk endless about our EB. For the first time we got a chance to decorate for the Alumnae 2019, that was a great responsibility, I was so tensed and bemused if we can handle it or not, my team were like ‘Srithisha we can do it and we will do it’, that word gave me a lot of support. After entering in to ARTISTA, I slowly kept washing away the dust of my daily life and presented it in the form of colours and my life is vibrant now. I’m very much grateful to be a part of Artista, for such a great support from board members, coordinators. I would like to thank - the management, Principal, HODs, Faculty for supporting, encouraging at every stage.
