Keepa Maskey
Keepa Maskey’s artistic journey delves into the intricate relationship between body, identity, soil and compost. Breaking away from cultural constraints, she explores diverse perspectives through experiential works that challenge conventional norms. Her paternal grandmother, Nani Maiya Maskey, played a pivotal role in this exploration, prompting her to question the intricate complexities within the existing caste system and how it shaped her identity.
At present, it is through writing, drawing, stitching, filming, deconstructing, collecting, colouring, listening, moving and performing that she connects and imagines a notion of community armoured and guided by ancestral knowledge.
