Neha Choksi
In work across and beyond performance, moving image, and sculpture, Neha Choksi probes lived experiences that negotiate relationships in unconventional settings. Harnessing stone to plant, animal to self, friends to institutions, Choksi’s materially bound art engages the terms of our existence in ways personal and planetary. Choksi’s recent stone sculpture poetically distills how stone, glass, and air are co-altered in their encounters; and how our being is shaped through the act of shaping.
