I am a multidisciplinary artist from India, based in Oslo. My practice moves between printmaking, sculpture, installation, ceramics, and performative
public projects. I use print as a method of thinking, built on pressure, repetition, and transfer, where images are revised, carried, and re-produced across materials. Moving from India to France and Norway shaped my understanding of place as unstable and negotiated; migration is not only a theme but an everyday condition in language, distance, and the body. I extend print into installation, moving image, &participatory platforms. I create staged environments and participatory situations where personal memory meets collective history, and the public becomes part of the archive.
''The Wheels of Impressions Bridging cultures through print'' is a mobile, participatory project that transforms a cargo bike into a portable printmaking studio operating in public space. The project travels across different geographic and social contexts, using printmaking as a tool to engage people in conversations about migration, identity, memory, and the meaning of home. Through free, spontaneous workshops in streets, parks, and neighbourhoods, participants of all ages and backgrounds are invited to take part in a shared process of making and reflection.
At the core of the project is a simple but urgent question: What is home? Participants are invited to reflect on how they feel about home—whether it is a place, a memory, a body, a language, or something fragile and unstable. Each participant is given a small metal plate and asked to scratch directly into its surface, translating thoughts and emotions into lines, marks, and symbols. While working, participants are invited to share their stories of home through informal conversation, allowing personal narratives to surface naturally in public space. Workshops introduce printmaking techniques. Their prints become artist books forming a mobile bike library, an open meeting place where people share stories, & explore belonging together.
