Artist Sumakshi Singh's large-scale installations tell tales of maritime journeys and adventures, connecting the human to the larger cosmos

Ships, seas and stories

Artist Sumakshi Singh's work includes large installations that employ a mix of painting, drawing, thread work, animation, projectionmapping and sculpture. She creates work that is layered upon pre-existing objects, stories or architectures of spaces, so these layers can take on new meaning every time they are viewed. I'm particularly fascinated by her installation titled In, Between the Pages, from 2014.

When I was pursuing my Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, I was hesitant to explore mediums beyond woodcut printmaking, as that was the focus of my study. I changed my opinion after seeing Sumakshi's remarkable leaf-thread drawings at the India Art Fair in Delhi.
