Making the ordinary visible


Namaste, my name is Chaitanya Modak.


Artist · Curator · Exhibition Maker

I work at the confluence of art, language and visual culture.

I can swim in the sea.

I am interested in the stories people make around everyday life–its memories, rituals, absurdities, oeriods, places, animals and things.

I am a passionate human being.


My work moves between artistbooks, drawing, comics, visual poetry, installations, moving image, exhibitions and participatory experiences that bring overlooked aspects of everyday life into focus..

Alongside my independent practice, I work as a brand consultant and designer, helping individuals and organisations think about how they are perceived and how they present themselves.

→ Explore Brand strategy, identity & design consultancy


I believe in art as social practice.
