SHIVANI MATHUR
If I had to summarise my artistic practice in a single word, it would be
"Nonlinear."
My curiosity is focused on the unpredictable nature of human behaviour, on sudden and seismic shifts in our environment, and how these shifts can either disrupt our lives, or show us a new way forward. Using a combination of art, finance, and science, I delve into the concept that what is "unseen" holds more power than what is visible when dealing with change and unpredictability in our relationships with people and in our relationship with our environment.

My artistic practice is simple. The materials I use are commonplace. Some smell terrible, some look ugly. From this pile of waste, by using simple repetitive and recursive actions, often assisted by technology, emerges a new order that was hard to imagine when I looked at the disorderly, broken and cracked materials.
The reversal from disorder to order in my artistic practice inspires me to observe, investigate and discover new pathways both within myself and in the universe. It reminds me to never lose sight of the fact that we are all naturally endowed with a gift: to dream the impossible, feel the intangible and visualise the limitless.
