ishasanekar1@gmail.com
I graduated with a B.F.A. from Sir J. J. Institute of Applied Art, Mumbai. Currently working at Ubisoft Studios. Coming from Mumbai’s suburban Marathi medium school and having a literary background at home, I derive my ideas from my mother tongue. I seek creative forms from the local culture and like to portray them. I believe in futuristic design; while presenting stories of folk & tribal art around me.
