Nishant Malhotra (b.1996) is an Indian-American multidisciplinary artist living in New York City, merging form and formlessness to develop his visual language. He recontextualizes Vedic and ancient Indic philosophy into a contemporary context, using the “working man” as his muse. His practice explores themes of impermanence, identity, and consciousness. As a self-taught artist, Nishant has always gravitated towards painting, while also being multi-faceted, blending his practice with his Visual Communications Design degree skillset to create merchandise, cover art and marketing collateral for diamond-album recording artists and renowned fashion designers.Nishant has been able to communicate with different communities through his work, showing the breadth of people who resonate with his practice. As the landscapes of society; media, technology, and politics rapidly change, his work becomes increasingly more relevant to the 21st century.
