From organized chaos Vipul brings works of art through film, drawings, illustrations and written fiction based stories. </span></font><span data-scayt_word="Vipul" data-scaytid="8" style="color: rgb(85, 85, 85); font-family: Verdana, 'BitStream vera Sans', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; ">Vipul</span><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#555555" face="Verdana, 'BitStream vera Sans', Helvetica, sans-serif"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;"> has also been a communication designer for over ten years, and is actively exhibiting his art work in in Houston, Texas.</span></font></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; text-align: -webkit-auto; "><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#555555" face="Verdana, 'BitStream vera Sans', Helvetica, sans-serif"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;"><br></span></font></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; text-align: -webkit-auto; "><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Verdana, 'BitStream vera Sans', Helvetica, sans-serif"><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#555555"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">Currently Vipul is taking on a few communication design projects from local organizations and is also planning his first feature length documentary about the South Asian Indian artist experience in America.
