About Me

I am a human staying afloat while drifting through shifting landscapes, learning from the places and communities I move alongside. Making the invisible visible and contesting the visible, I move between spaces to interpret, translate, and reimagine ways of seeing, being, and knowing. With over fifteen years of experience working with individuals, collectives, and organisations, I shape, implement, and realise narratives, participatory processes, and visual strategies. I bring together insights from multiple fields, turning ideas into action across creative and social spaces.

 

Carried by currents from my birth in Zambia to growing up in Kolkata in the Bengal Delta, I have been shaped by landscapes in constant becoming. Memory, migration, and poetics shape how I see, listen, and work, attuning my practice to how communities adapt, endure, and reimagine life within changing environments.

Working through photography, multimodal anthropology, and interdisciplinary cultural practice, my work is grounded in the politics of visibility and representation. Drawing on over a decade of lens-based practice across creative and media industries, I have developed a critical attentiveness to questions of visibility, access, and authorship, and to the structures through which knowledge is produced, circulated, and withheld.

As a founding member of Untold, India’s first digital storytelling platform, I contributed to the development of immersive narrative forms that challenged dominant representational frames and amplified voices often rendered invisible. This experience continues to inform my commitment to participatory digital infrastructures that enable collaborative authorship, immersive experimentation, and advocacy-driven knowledge dissemination.

My cultural practice continued to evolve through my role as Artistic Co-Director of Oyoun in Berlin, where I led intersectional, research-driven projects rooted in decolonial, queer-feminist, and migrant perspectives. I continue to work within the Oyoun collective, developing socio-political projects and contributing to infrastructures of care that support neurodivergent, transnational, and community-led work.

I support organisations, institutions, and brands in bringing together insights from multiple fields to develop responsible visual strategies, narratives, and participatory frameworks. My consultancy practice focuses on translating complex socio-cultural questions into ethical, context-sensitive public-facing work. Across hybrid spaces and tools, I explore how art, science, and technology can come together to cultivate more relational, accessible, and just ways of knowing.

My transnational practice continues across the Asia-Pacific, Arctic regions, and multiple parts of Europe, engaging with local, Indigenous, and diasporic communities living within shifting ecological and political landscapes.
