Bio

Visual artist / Illustrator. I live and work in Kerala and Chennai.
My shift from a nondescript village to a town and then to many metros has brought me in touch with many people and ideas. This has defined and widened my creative pursuits. It has deepened my understanding of various life issues and human struggles. I am getting to know the urban environment around me, ecological issues, and more about the sense of identity. I realise that we have to return to the very soil that gave us form. It is a cycle of birth and rebirth. My expressions and characters come out of a synthesis of the mundane and the meditative in me. The figurations, in brown and black, give the feel of mud/soil which I deliberately and compulsively adopt. I can only long for the sense of the soil, which the city is seriously deprived of.

I exhibited my artwork at major art galleries in India as well as abroad. Published illustrations in the leading English newspapers in India. The Times of India, The New Indian Express, and India Today.

I’m a recipient of The Pollock-Krasner Foundation fellowship from the USA in 2013 and have received the Honourable Mention Award instituted by the Kerala Lalithkala Akademi in 2017. I was a delegate at the International Art Symposium ‘The Breath of Epos’ 2010 held in Yelabuga, Russia, supported by UNESCO.

Some of my major works were exhibited in Lokame Tharavadu (The World Is One Family) is a large-scale curated contemporary art exhibition of Malayali artists, organised by the Kochi Biennale Foundation, curated by Bose Krishnamachari, Alappuzha, and Ernakulam in 2021.

Currently, I am working on a large canvas that combines my roots and present concerns.
