RENU REDHU India, b. 1989
"I woke up early and went for a long run on marine drive. Once recharged, I headed back to my studio, a cozy and quiet place. I pulled a chair and painted all day. As the sun set, I went to art galleries nearby; and came back with more ideas.
A stretch of uninterrupted time to work, read, wander and hang out with people who have the same strange predilections as I do. I called it Art Camp - but it was actually an Artist Residency at Space 118."
