Sukanya Garg
Artisera
Sukanya Garg explores the human body's intricacies, particularly the perceptions that stem from the constant evolution of cell structures. Her practice is inspired by her unprecedented journey across the world to understand pain and the diverse practices of healing. Sukanya has developed an artistic language that explores life’s fragility and resilience, whilst taking us on a simultaneous path into the body's interiority and the cosmos of the universe. Her practice explores the underlying layers of one’s being, digging deep to unravel the mysteries of identity, perception, reality, and dreams. Understanding how the human perception of these revelations is influenced by an individual’s intrinsic attributes and his or her constantly changing external environment, is what lies at the core of her work. For Sukanya, art is a medium of instilling hope in a turbulent time, such as the one we inhabit today.
A graduate of Public Policy from Duke University, Sukanya Garg’s artistic practice was developed with the guidance of artist Shobha Broota. A trained economist who became an artist, writer, curator and a poet, Garg’s works have been shown at the Taragaon Museum, Kathmandu; Academy of Fine Arts, Kolkata; Under the Mango Tree Art Space, Berlin; Galera, Užupio Meno Inkubatorius, Vilnius; Centre for Contemporary Art, Bikaner House, New Delhi; Palette Art Gallery, New Delhi; Dhoomimal Gallery, New Delhi; National Museum, Delhi among others.
