Kirti Virmani is an Indian-born visual artist based in London, working across photography, printmaking, and sculptural forms.
Her multidisciplinary practice centres around ideas of rebellion within and hope. What she observes through her photographic lens becomes the source material for what she constructs and destructs through her print and sculpture practice to navigate, and reconfigure the existing gender narratives that she finds herself in.
Kirti's new body of work is about her ongoing interest in observing architectural sites through a feminist lens to make visible the invisible perspectives that have been normalised. In her current work she uses windows as specific metaphors, reimagining them as visual thresholds to question how architecture mediates access, gaze, and power.
She holds a Master’s in Print from the Royal College of Art and has exhibited her work in both the UK and India.
