VARUN RAM KURTKOTI
Visual Artist
I am a filmmaker and visual artist. I primarily work in the areas of individual memory in relation to the collective, the politics of identity, and oral cultures. I strongly believe that art has the strength to bridge conflicts, give voice to the voiceless, and bring in a new wave of social development, and I make an effort to reflect this philosophy in my practice.
