Puneet Kaushik
Delhi | Visual & Textile Artist
Journey
Puneet has three decades of engagement at the intersection of contemporary art, craft, and design.
He has worked closely at the grassroots level with craftsmen, weavers, folk, and tribal artists across India, advocating for sustainable livelihoods and contemporary relevance of traditional practices.
Style
Puneet's sculptural work explores the essence of being through intensely personal abstract expression. He uses delicate wire-mesh combined with traditional textiles, manifesting duality: light and shadow, gravity and lightness, inner and outer self.
His pieces often feature visceral details of the human body with abundant use of red. He scratches the surface to expose the core, connecting with the subtle self through materials and techniques that carry cultural memory.
