Akshita Gandhi

Location
Maharashtra, India

Akshita Gandhi is a photographer and multi-media artist based in Mumbai. She investigates the construction and deconstruction of identity, home, and belonging, exploring contradictions of stability and instability within image and memory while grappling with colonialism and the social and visual ramifications of India’s capitalist structure and other society’s social structures around the world. Centering on urban landscapes and spaces, her photographs enhance architectural elements through repetition and distortion resulting in painterly renditions of escapism. Gandhi reworks these images by painting over them and working digitally with repetition, distortion, and collaging, oscillating between interfaces of obscurity/perceptibility pushing the boundaries of visual experience. Using light as a guiding principle, Gandhi’s work speaks to the transformative power of artistic practice. She has ventured into creating collaborative music and video piece to give her viewers an immersive experience. During her travels, she captures mundane representations of everyday life and cityscapes around the world.
