Rocketganj: A Town Built on Dreams and Debris

This world explores a fictional Indian town where the private space race is a backyard industry. I imagine the lives of its citizens, caught between the promise of a glorious future and the reality of living with falling rocket debris and pollution.

Network Nagar: The Vertical City

This concept visualizes a dystopian solution to urban overcrowding where slums are built vertically on massive communication towers. It's a commentary on social mobility and the digital divide, exploring what life looks like when the only way to go is up.

Characters & Creatures of New Indian Folklore

I design characters and creatures for new myths, blending traditional Indian folklore with contemporary urban anxieties. This includes concepts like the `Rākbhoot` (a smog demon), the `Yuntryodhās` (cosmic warrior-engineers), and beings born from climate change.

Retrofuturism: Visions of a Past Future

I create entire fictional histories for brands and studios that never existed, asking "what if?". This includes world-building for the forgotten 1960s Bollywood sci-fi studio `VyomaVision` and the utopian-yet-dystopian `Indian Sentient Machines Corporation` (INSEMCO).

Surreal Streets: The Magic in the Mundane

I find the surreal in everyday Indian life, twisting reality just enough to ask questions about our world. This series includes everything from floating citizens and amphibious autos to sentient kirana stores and shrines to AI gods.

Cyber-Noir & Dystopian Portraits

This is a darker, more intimate exploration of the human condition in a high-tech world. I create portraits and scenes that delve into themes of identity, transhumanism, and surveillance, often with a gritty, noir aesthetic.

Riyal Life: Satire, Memes & Social Commentary

Using the language of Indian internet culture, I create satirical comics and images that comment on technology, society, and the apocalypse. This is where I blend high-concept ideas with Hinglish slang and meme formats for a bit of brainrot therapy.

Brand Worlds & Collaborations

I help brands imagine their place in a future India by building entire settings and narratives where their products can exist. This includes creating dynamic, exciting visions for campaigns that are both futuristic and commercially effective.

Behind the Art: Press & Appearances

My work has been featured in various publications and I've had the opportunity to speak about AI, storytelling, and the world of Indofuturism. This is a look at my journey as an artist and my efforts to build a community around these ideas.
