Ritaban Ghosh

Ritaban Ghosh deploys queries into the cusps of the contemporary rippling across pluralities of time. Through image, sculpture, food, and performance, he ponders the scape between the seen and imagined and their intervening capacity, with compassionate scrutiny. Negotiating perimeters of power, evidence and historical conjecture, he segues into diverse discourses of threshold and insolvability to chart the voyage to artisthood. He has received the Toto-Tasveer Award for his work Lonely Side Of Force (2019), published in The Sunday Times and Better Photography magazines. His work Tender Is The Night, supported by MurthyNayak Foundation (2020) was shown at KHOJ (2021). His video piece NAINAN (2021) was a finalist for Sundance Ignite X Adobe Fellowship, screened at CineToro and Harkat Studios. His lecture performance hydra-morphing (2023) was aired at La Straordinaria and his sculpture Oppressive Stillness In The Air (2023) was exhibited at LATITUDE 28. Working with broken Buddha, trampled snakes, yellow nights, and capsulised waste, it never ceases to amaze him how we exist and continually adapt ourselves to any and everything and never be the same person again.
