Born in Bombay, India and based in the United Kingdom, Kinnari Saraiya is an Artist, Curator, Writer and Thinker of the colonial present. Her interests lie in the ruptures created through colonialism in space and time, and to look at the past ways of life as a way towards the future. Through the recovery and binding of ancient and new tools, resources, and technologies, her work constructs a portal, a time capsule that helps define, find, create, escape, and return home. She received Bachelors in Fine Art with honours from Arts University Bournemouth in 2020, where she was awarded the Dean’s Prize for excellence in creativity for her graduate project ‘Victoria Terminus’.
