I am an illustrator, cartoonist and reportage artist working between New York City and Mumbai. I am currently pursuing my Masters degree in Illustration as Visual Essay at School of Visual Arts, New York. My work explores the theme of processing and documenting human relationships. I am inspired by everyday life and instances of emotional connection between strangers.
I am also very interested in the conversations people have over food, the diversity of food in New York, and how food experiences in the city are influenced by seasons, pop culture, immigration and gentrification.
I enjoy making patterns, sketching at live drawing events, organizing workshops and giving artist talks. Get in touch if you'd like make something cool together!
