Where the work has travelled.
Three bodies of work, three different materials, one continuing question — how an inner state becomes a visible form.
Chitrayaan: A Journey Inward
Presented at Alankar Art Gallery, Jawahar Kala Kendra, this exhibition brought together a body of work developed largely during a period of prolonged introspection and isolation. Rather than maintaining a single visual language, it moved deliberately across painting, drawing, abstraction, surreal figuration and mixed media, allowing shifts in form to mirror shifts within the psyche.
The works trace a psychological trajectory through longing, intimacy, fragmentation, solitude, sensory overwhelm and eventual renewal — populated by distorted bodies, hybrid beings and fluid inner landscapes. The self is treated not as something fixed, but as something repeatedly found, unsettled and reconstructed.
It functions as both an archive of an evolving inner world and an early articulation of concerns that continue through the practice: embodiment, emotional states, transformation and the instability of identity.

Painting · Mixed MediaWhat Remains Unnamed
Presented as part of the fifth edition of The Art of India, organised by The Times of India and curated by art historian Dr. Alka Pande — a major survey of nearly 300 works spanning Indian masters, contemporary artists, folk and tribal practices, craft and new media. The 2026 edition travelled across Delhi, Jaipur and Mumbai, placing this work within a much larger intergenerational landscape of Indian art, alongside artists including M. F. Husain.
The exhibited series uses the visual logic of the Rorschach inkblot to approach psychological states that resist language — sensations, tensions and emotional residues experienced before they can be coherently narrated. Created in alcohol ink on paper, the works hover between abstraction and recognition; their bilateral forms suggest bodies, organs, landscapes and creatures without resolving into any single reading.
It asks what happens when an artwork does not tell us what it depicts, but becomes a surface through which the viewer encounters something of themselves.
The Birth of Change
Created for Jaipur Art Week 5.0, organised by the Public Arts Trust of India, this is a five-part, double-sided immersive textile installation examining transformation as an internal threshold — the unstable interval in which something has begun to change before it can fully be understood or named.
The installation brings together circular textile forms made through Daabu resist dyeing, natural indigo and hand embroidery, mounted within fabricated metal structures. Each circular work is double-sided and positioned at a deliberate angle, so no single viewpoint reveals it completely — as the viewer moves around it, images disappear, emerge and overlap, turning physical movement into a metaphor for the non-linear experience of becoming.
The repeated circle operates less as a symbol of continuity — transformation proposed not as a clean before-and-after, but as an ongoing, partial and perpetually unfolding condition.

Works from these series are available as originals, limited prints, or as the starting point for a custom commission.
