About Custom Sculpture Commissions
Why I Sculpt
Steel is my language. After years in business, I needed something real, so I turned to art. Metal casting felt natural, and now I use steel to chase fluidity, light, and shadow. I don’t force the material - I let it speak. Sometimes it’s stubborn, but when it works, the result feels alive.
How We Work Together
A custom sculpture isn’t just me making something for you. It’s a proper partnership. We start with a conversation - I want to know your vision, your space, and what matters to you. I often chat with your designer or architect too, so the piece fits right in. Then I sketch out ideas, and we tweak the design till it feels just right. Once we lock it, I get to work in my studio. The last step is installation, where the artwork finally lands in its new home.
What I Make
- Site-specific wall installations: These aren’t just decorations. They interact with the wall, play with light, and change the mood of a room. Mostly contemporary metal art sculptures, sometimes mixed with wood.
- Freestanding sculptures: Abstract stainless steel sculptures or figurative pieces. I like exploring themes like the mother-child bond or womanhood. Brass and bronze accents add contrast.
- Custom narrative art pieces: If you have a story or symbol in mind, we can build it. Bulls for power, butterflies for hope, cosmic meteor series, or spiritual Ganpati forms.
Real Talk
Sculpture looks easy when finished, but it’s built on years of discipline. My aim? To make something that keeps surprising you, even after you’ve lived with it for a while.

My Story
I've been a businessman, an entrepreneur, you name it. But deep down, always wanted to make things with my hands. Business life taught me a thing or two about metal casting, so when I finally jumped into art, working with metal just clicked. I love turning tough, cold stuff into something that feels alive. Ideas come from everywhere - Mumbai design shows or even wandering around Vietnam. For me, it’s about catching a feeling and making it real.
My Work
What I Make - I do stainless steel statement sculpture, pop art installations, and bold contemporary paintings - all meant to spark energy and thought.
How I Work - Mostly stainless steel, but also polycarbonate and corten steel. I play with light and shape so each piece looks different as the day goes.
What Inspires Me - Transformation, resilience, joy. Think butterflies in flight or the brief drama of an eclipse. I want you to spot something new every time.
Who I Work With - I make custom metal art installation for architects, designers, and collectors who want something different for their space.
Custom Pieces - Love working together on ideas - happy to make something just for your space and vibe.
