Overview
Keerthana Kunnath is a visual artist based between London and India. Engaging
with the visual rhetoric of post-colonial Indian mainstream media, she deconstructs and reimagines narratives, thereby challenging the entrenched societal norms.
Kunnath’s work is deeply rooted in personal and collective memories, exploring the intersections of intimacy, queerness, and community. Her process is enhanced by active participation in communal activities, fostering a collaborative experience between herself and her subjects. She frequently travels to her homeland to explore the nuanced histories of smaller communities and family legacies. Her work is an investigation into the socio-cultural fabric, offering a lens into the intimate and the universal, the personal and the political.
Keerthana Kunnath’s works have been featured in notable exhibitions, including OD Photo Prize, Dandi, London (Dec 2024–Jan 2025) and Mirrors and Windows, Photoworks Weekender 2024, UK (Oct 2024).
Currently based in London.
