Vivek Jain, M.A.

Driven by curiosity about the systems of idea transmission, my work is analogous to practice-based artistic research. From social history to behavioural science, from biological evolution to cultural trends, every bit of knowledge out there shapes my critical thinking and, hence, my creativity. As an audio-visual artist, I explore the entangling narratives of the social, political and ethical. Building upon the learnings I garner as a lifelong student of Storytelling and Cinema, my practice is an attempt to realise art that exists in a symbiotic relationship with epistemology. While grappling with the paradox of human existence, I strive to extend my creative and critical perspectives to explore the realm of unspeakable, non-human beauty, not confined to the normative anthropocentric parameters. In a world brimming with fiction, I wish to extend my enquiries to imagine and create realities that go beyond the obsolete logic of progress while bringing forth marginalised perspectives.
