MUMBAI, India

As an artist, I am a storyteller. My work is shaped by my life, inner conversations, and memories. Literature plays a central role in my process; for me, art and literature are inseparable.

Being a self-taught mixed media and collage artist, I naturally break conventions and learn continuously—often through mistakes. I love pushing the boundaries of materials and techniques, always experimenting to tell a unique story.

Sustainability deeply influences my practice. I strive to minimise waste by creating with found objects and recycled materials, blending mixed media, collage, and printmaking into an organic style that resonates with me.Oil pastels on paper remain my favourite medium—valued not only for their texture but for the sense of peace, joy, and connection I experience while working with them.
