About the Artist/Speaker
Avinash Kumar, born in 1996 in Ranchi, India, is a visionary artist, painter, and muralist whose work has left an indelible mark on the artistic landscape of the country. Operating under the street name “AVI,” he has become synonymous with the awe-inspiring murals he creates. His distinctive anamorphic style is not merely a technique; it's a transformative experience that reshapes the perception of familiar environments. Avinash's paintings carve paths, spaces, and loops into the structures on which they are born, inviting the audience to embark on a visual journey through his art.
