Harshh Kumar
Harsh Kumar is a multidisciplinary artist based in Delhi, India, working across painting, sculpture, printmaking, photography, installation, performance, and video. Influenced by expressionism, abstraction, and contemporary visual languages, his practice explores memory, emotion, and the subconscious mind through intuitive and experimental approaches.
