It’s the final week to catch our group show “The Subaltern Can Paint”, on view until this Saturday, January 25. Our next featured artist is Kuldeep Singh.
Kuldeep Singh (b. 1984, India) is a visual artist whose practice is anchored in oil painting, along with a decade-long rigorous training in the Indian classical dance of Odissi. The rich narrative story telling of Odissi is the backbone of Singh’s visual and kinetic operation. His interlaced practice brings together issues pertaining to queerness through a sacred lens, and entwines ecology through an ecofeminist perspective.
Singh completed his BFA in Applied Arts from Delhi University in 2007, simultaneously studying Indian Classical Dance under Madhavi Mudgal until 2012. He then he received his MFA in Painting and Intermedia from the University of Iowa with full scholarship in 2015. Singh lives and works in New York.
