Aakash Dewan is an artist and industrial designer from Bombay, currently based in Bangalore. He maintains an independent art practice rooted in drawing and painting. He works primarily on paper and canvas, sometimes extending into fabric and embroidery. His process is shaped by a daily ritual of doodling one page every night, functioning as meditation and observation, and translating everyday provocations like objects and architecture into spatial compositions with depth.
His journey with art began early, guided by an artist mother and formal training, later leading him to a master’s in industrial design in 2012. Influenced by three-dimensional thinking and M.C. Escher, his works often resemble architectural grids or imagined cities. He has practiced consistently for over ten years, expanding from small sketchbooks to larger formats, treating art as provocation and valuing handmade authenticity in an increasingly artificial world.
