ABOUT ME
DIGITAL ARTIST
AND SERVICE DESIGNER
BASED IN CALGARY
I'm an artist and service designer working at the intersection of visual narrative and systems thinking. My practice spans two streams: studio work exploring South Asian identity and representation, and service design building systems that honor complexity and create space for transformation.
Why Project
Aananta?
Aananta (uh-NAHN-tuh) —
Gurmukhi: ਅਨੰਤ, Sanskrit: अनन्त
— represents the nature of the true self. Infinite, unchanging, and always changing. Unending.
Similar to Indic iconography, my emblem embodies this Truth. We are always changing, and we must serve one another in balance. This portfolio represents all aspects of the work I do, showing dedication through practice.
Chardi Kala (CHAR-dee KAH-lah) means rising power. It's the flow state you feel when you align with the Force that moves through all things, the current beneath creation itself. The betterment of humanity isn't personal effort or institutional work. It's an outgrowth of aligning with that Force, rising in power, and becoming benefactors through service.
My work exists in this space. Studio practice explores identity and cultural narrative. Service design builds systems that honour dignity. Both seek transformation at the intersection of culture, identity, and systems.
