Bharathesh G D
Bangalore-based visual artist, curator, researcher, and educator whose interdisciplinary practice explores image, abstraction, belief, and perception. He holds a BVA in Painting from the Government College of Fine Arts, Dharwad, and an MVA in Art History from Karnataka Chitrakala Parishath, Bangalore. His work moves fluidly across painting, video, sound, installation, photography, drawing, and performative objects, evolving from formal concerns toward concept-driven inquiry. Grounded in both studio practice and critical reflection, his practice probes the shifting boundaries of meaning, image-making, and modes of witnessing.
Some of his major exhibitions include “An Index of Disobedience,” a solo show at Fulcrum gallery, Mumbai (2025), “Plural Morphologies, the stories we tell ourselves,” Curated by Mukta Ahluwalia at KDA, New Delhi (2019) and “Light of Flights,” curated by Serendipity Art Foundation, Goa (2018).
Bharathesh G D lives and works in Bengaluru, Karnataka.
