Class of 2020: Rithika Pandey
BA Fine Art: Painting, Drawing and Printmaking, Carmarthen School of Art, Coleg Sir Gar.
Rithika Pandey says of her work:
“I am yearning for a spiritual, perhaps enlightened escape.” Working in painting, collage, animation and installations, her approach combines the personal, the mythological and the earthly – “a spectrum of psycho-spatial exploration”. She adds: “I am also gazing into the contemporary socio-political realities surrounding displacement, migration, women’s cultural and economic states, and most importantly mental health.”
Degree show: An online degree show is expected in June, while future plans for a physical show are still to be confirmed. www.colegsirgar.ac.uk
