ANIRUDH SHAKTAWAT India, b. 1999

Anirudh Shaktawat (b. 1999/ Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India) completed his BFA, School of the Art Institute of Chicago, 2021.

 His most recent solo show, titled “non-monolith: a body in particles”, was hosted at Blueprint12 in New Delhi in 2022. He has taken part in several group shows and have held multiple solo exhibitions. He has also garnered numerous scholarships and accolades, including the Space118 Grant and recognition on the shortlist of The Arts Family London Award. 

Anirudh works with building materials that engage in the mediation of heat, moisture, and light, and his compositions bounce between the bodily, domestic, and environmental scales. Embedded in research on devotional practices and conceptions of nature, his works question, and aim to dissolve, material and spatial boundaries.

He lives and works in  the Southern Aravalli Ranges of Rajasthan, India.
