Living on Dharug Land in Sydney, 22 year old Varsha is an ex-politics student, an activist, a sometimes artist, a now corporate shmuck, an over thinker and has grown up in an Indian-Australian household of loud personalities. In her spare time, you’ll find Varsha creating magical digital art and paintings.
With a keen passion for equality and diversity, people are at the heart of what she creates and she is passionate about creating dialogues and spaces for all and every experience of being human.
This piece is a concept in realism and non-realism art-making, playing on the juxtaposition of style from haphazard line work to detailed realistic drawing. Deconstruct is about the sense of self and identity at its most surface-level, its most connected and its most intricate. People and their experience of the world is only ever as complex as they allow you to encounter.
