Ravikumar Kashi is an artist whose works defy easy categorisation. He has done painting, sculpture, photography and installation, but they combine or cut across defined expectations from these mediums. His idea / concept driven works are layered and connect with the viewer in multiple ways. Introspection is an important aspect of his works which touch upon the idea of self and its many facets. He has also explored the themes of desire, gratification, consumerism and destruction in individuals and at the societal level.
