Sagarika Sundaram

Sundaram’s practice bridges material traditions and sculptural form, reimagining felt-making as an act of construction, layering and transformation. About Working with wool, silk and dyes, Sundaram creates tactile, dimensional works that speak of the body and architecture. She treats fibre as a sculptural medium that holds space, volume, surface and weight, each emphasised by her promiscuous use of colour. Her works are shaped through cutting, touch, pressure and the slow forming of matter, evoking both carving and moulding. She manipulates felted surfaces to reveal embedded pockets and hidden forms that lie beneath. These gestures of incision and revelation carry an energy of release, transforming surface into depth, containment into emergence. Sundaram studied at the National Institute of Design, Ahmedabad before completing her MFA at Parsons School of Design, The New School, New York. Solo exhibitions include those at Alison Jacques, London and Nature Morte, Delhi (2025) and Palo Gallery, New York (2023). She has participated in group exhibitions at the Bronx Museum, New York (2024) and the Al Held Foundation & River Valley Arts Collective, Boiceville (2023).
