Sandhi rescues and repurposes the frenzied, industrial, mass-produced, junk produced for today’s beauty-centric society and turns it into striking works of art.

Sandhi has been saving and utilizing quotidian source materials for decades. Their original, utilitarian purpose is deconstructed physically and conceptually - breaking down the memory of how these objects were originally meant to be received and perceived.

It is a slow process! She selectively scavenges through her materials; binding together heterogeneous materials. In her compositions, the paper itself, is inconsequential. 
The nuances in color, typography and texture...draw the eye in; then the brain consolidates the miscellanea...


A technique she "invented" in 2001 is a true testament to good, old fashioned analog skills like drawing, painting, creating compositions, intricate cutting and embellishing by hand.

 Without the aid of tools, computers, or AI.

"An artist's job is to challenge, provoke and immortalize the age they live in. This is the age of information overload.

A society where every visage is highly scrutinized, where AI, deep fakes and filters thrive, and intimate moments are publicly shared and brutally judged.

Images enter our psyches through mailboxes, electronic devices, billboards, ads & influencers.
We’re never far from an over-produced reel, a sales pitch, a come on, a buzz word, an overwrought hash tagged image. My job as an artist is to create in this environment, my comment is about the environment."
