Aadesh Sansare

"On seeing a dead bird at the age of 3, I became fascinated by organic things and nature in general. Since then, the urge to capture it in its purest essence has been ingrained in my subconscious. It was first with my own eyes and then discovering various other image-capturing devices as I grew up. Along with this exploration, I was immersed in exploring new emotions that I had not felt before. These come in the form of overwhelming tragedy as well as deep affection. The creation of these moving images is entirely subconscious, but at the same time, there are layers to every single image. In a few artworks, I have pixelated a video file into a pixel static which can be turned back into its original form, while in some, I have corrupted the stills for a more modern/ distorted look. Apart from these, there is a considerable amount of research done on paintings that are used to augment the particular frame & what emotion/ being it signifies. They may appear with an audio input to the psyche or with silence. I've worked with paint, film, paper, textiles, and organic carcasses as mediums so far. The photographs have not been manipulated on any digital or analogue media but have been acquired straight with a scanner. I am motivated by the desire to develop and innovate beyond the constraints of my meagre means. "
