The Idea 01

Indian art holds two thousand years of extraordinary stories, and most of them are harder to reach than they should be. Through conversations, exhibitions, and research, I try to make them easier to enter: encouraging museum-going, introducing younger audiences to Indian artists, and working alongside the institutions, collectors, and artists who care for this field.

The Person 02

It began at fifteen, inside the Kiran Nadar Museum of Art. Everything since, the fifty conversations, the debut exhibition, the advisory work, has been one attempt after another to help tell India's two millennia of stories.
