Kalapremi’s artistic sanctuary

Sculptor and ceramist Gopal Kalapremi Shrestha, discusses his inspirations, and plans for publishing a book.

Avant-garde, mysterious, and maximalist, Gopal Kalapremi Shrestha’s residential studio in Baluwatar has a personality of its own. Dimly lit, the stairway is adorned with esoteric, vivid and diverse artwork collected over the years. Gas cylinders line up on the floor like ants, powering the kiln for his ceramics.
