Ritika Sharma
My artistic practice explores the quiet politics of everyday life, focusing on how routine gestures, spaces, and signs reflect systems of control, care, and resistance. Growing up on the city's outskirts shaped my sensitivity to the unspoken rules that govern movement, access, and safety. I work across media—painting, photography, text, and installation—guided by the needs of each project. Using objects, calendars, and books as narrative tools, I investigate themes of containment, ambiguity, and agency, particularly concerning gender and public life. My work holds space for reflection by drawing attention to what is often overlooked or internalized.
