Collection: Sangeeta Sandrasegar

Sangeeta Sandrasegar works within a research-based practice, building narratives in which new work connects to previous projects. The artist’s practice consolidates postcolonial and hybridity theory, exploring her life in Australia and the relationship between migrant communities and homelands.
Sangeeta Sandrasegar’s practice has consistently engaged with shadow as a formal and symbolic motif in developing these themes. The artist manipulates shadow in all forms to create images and effects that are ephemeral and powerful. Sandrasegar’s diverse application of the silhouette gives a voice to the identities of people caught on the margins of society. These fluctuating shadows and ephemeral visual effects subtly address the ambiguous status of individuals caught in a complex social structure. https://www.sangeetasandrasegar.com.au
