Available on all The Frame TV models, the collection of artworks from Terrain.art has been added to the existing art store that offers more than 2100 artworks. Created by young Indian artists, these newly added artworks are a contemporary take on Indian monuments, folk art, textile traditions, diversity and more. Made with bold brush strokes, vibrant colours, and carefully drawn lines, the artworks present the themes of ecology, futurism, migration, and hope, etc. expressed in a variety of artistic languages.
Designed with customisable bezels and slim edges, The Frame TV lends a luxury aesthetic appeal to consumers’ living rooms by offering a real-life art gallery-like experience at home. Its matte display and accurate exhibition of colours allow consumers to enjoy fine detail of the art pieces with sheer precision.
