nikheel: Currently New Delhi, India; I was interested in art and lettering since childhood. My teachers all agreed my handwriting was not only readable but beautiful and nice. So in school I was the permanent member to write daily quotes, common area instructions and notice boards. After 10th class I enrolled in an art school to become a commercial artist. There i was exposed to Calligraphy and Typography where my love for letters bloomed. We were taught our local script Devnagri as well as the Roman. My work reflects the image-centric visual abstraction of letterforms, where legibility often plays a secondary role. I like to explore compositions of letters and expose their hidden beauty through interesting forms, spaces and surfaces with the help of unconventional tools and techniques. I graduated in Applied Arts from L.S. Raheja School of Arts, Mumbai, followed by post graduation in Graphic Design from the National Institute of Design, Ahmedabad. I currently work as an independent graphic designer and calligrapher in Delhi. I religiously collect macthboxes, vintage stuff, plain notebooks, alphabets & textiles also A truly Bollywood devotee, foodie and avid traveler.
