Abin Sreedharan K. P. lives and works between Baroda and Kerala. He holds a Bachelor’s degree in Sociology from University of Calicut, a BFA in Sculpture from the College of Fine Arts, Thiruvananthapuram, and an MFA from the Sarojini Naidu School of Arts and Communication, University of Hyderabad. In 2023, he was an artist-in-residence at Gasworks.

Working across sculpture, painting, and installation, his practice employs found objects, archival material, news imagery, and photographs to construct imagined, often animalistic forms. These forms draw from the visual language of historical and contemporary measuring instruments, reflecting on systems that classify, quantify, and regulate bodies. His work emerges from an acute awareness of how individuals—particularly those from subaltern and marginalised positions—are persistently measured and interpreted within social and cultural frameworks. Engaging with both the spoken and unspoken codes of Indian visual language, he examines the tensions between visibility, prejudice, and identity. Through artistic transformation, his practice becomes an ongoing effort to reclaim erased narratives: moving from the intimacy of home, through the lens of race and social categorisation, and back again, imagining the possibility of a more equitable, if utopian, horizon.
