Public Art and Special Projects
2022 Painting Toronto (Bouquet Wheat Paste Series) Toronto, ON
A self-initiated public art project consisting of wheat-pasted digital artworks installed across eight locations throughout Toronto. Each site was uniquely altered with hand-painted bouquets of flowers, transforming identical printed works into site-specific, one-of-one pieces.
2021 Citywide Billboard Campaign, Toronto, ON
A self-funded public art campaign featuring original portrait-based artworks installed on three billboards and 100 TTC shelters across Toronto. The project contextualized digital portraiture at an architectural scale, inserting contemporary South Asian representation into commercial advertising spaces traditionally reserved for brands.
