About the artist

Dhira

Dhira Barein is a contemporary symbolic artist whose work is defined by a profound sense of connection, belonging and the emotional landscapes of human relationships. Her paintings and sculptures create poetic spaces where figures embody love, tenderness and the search for a place of belonging — not as a physical location, but as an inner state. Combining personal experiences with universal questions of our time, her work reflects on human relationships, environmental awareness and our shared responsibility for the world we inhabit. In a fast-changing and increasingly impersonal world, Dhira Barein’s art offers moments of stillness — inviting reflection, encounter and a deeper sense of humanity.

Magazin Artikel Viv Art

Dhira was born in 1975 in Graz, Austria.

Her colorful life began with constant relocations and long stays in Spain and India. This turbulent lifestyle, and the accompanying sense of instability, led her to find a beloved place of retreat already in her childhood — where she would paint or work with clay.

Her formative years in India’s vibrant art scene, as well as her teachers — the Japanese artist Mira Haschimoto and Kislay Vora — had a significant influence on her artistic expression.

Since 2002, she has worked as a freelance artist and continued to spend many years in India and Spain, primarily in Ibiza and Barcelona. There, she worked for renowned musicians, clubs, and prestigious hotels, who entrusted her with the task of filling their spaces with color and life. Her works are also found in many private Collections.

To this day, she holds her work to a high standard:
Her art should radiate timeless elegance and aesthetic, while also touching the viewer’s soul.

She describes the creative process as something constantly evolving. She believes that an artist never truly „arrives“

As she does not focus solely on painting but also creates sculptures and reliefs out of clay, she is often referred to as a multi-artist.
Some of her commissioned work has even included CD covers, illustrations, graffiti, and murals.

With every creation, her wish remains the same: To make the world a little more beautiful.

When working on commissions, she stays in close contact with clients to incorporate any desired changes.

Since 2010, she has been living and working in Neu-Isenburg and, in 2022, she opened a gallery that bears her name.
