Artist Statement

Most of Nandan’s work are multi disciplinary installations with underlying perception of cognitive dissonance. It coincides with everyone’s odd phantasm and nihilistic belonging with consequences of misplacement and misinformation. Our generation grew up in a perception that reality is the most surreal thing, we are floating in a marginalized social structure and trying to figure out the balance between us and the world. By using cardboard, animation, VR video etc, she creates intimacy spaces like a false self preservation solution with sanitize and romanticize armor. They explore the rawness of a contemporary self, embodied cognition of emptiness, and reveals an irrational order of a hyper normalized wonderland.
