Reevah Agarwaal is a multi-disciplinary artist from New Delhi, India, currently based in Chicago, IL. She earned her MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) in 2024. Drawing inspiration from the aesthetics of girlhood, her work incorporates feminine palettes and decorative elements, often realized through quilts and collages. By reinterpreting childhood photographs, keepsakes, and lived experiences, she delves into themes of adolescence and patriarchal Indian family dynamics. Utilizing found and inherited textiles, Reevah evokes memories and feminist histories, reframing perceptions of domesticity, womanhood, and identity.
Her work has been featured in numerous exhibitions, including FLXST Contemporary, Bridgeport Art Center, Chicago Art Department, Woman Made Gallery, Research House for Asian Art, South Asia Institute, Zhou B Art Center, and Stainless Gallery (New Delhi). In 2024, she was awarded the New Futures Award from The Other Art Fair and is currently a resident at the Chicago Artists Coalition. Full CV For inquiries please reach out to [email protected] |
