About

Abhishek Tuiwala(1994) is a Sculptor, drawing and installation artist with B.F.A. (Sculpture) from V.N.S.G.U., Surat, Gujarat; M.F.A. (Sculpture) from Pratt Institution, Brooklyn, New York. I have been part of many online and in-person exhibitions conducted worldwide in India, the United States and South Korea. I have Attended various sculpture workshops on Clay Modeling, Moulding, Castings and carvings. I also received the scholarship, grants and many national and international awards for my work. About my work: The essence of humanity is all about culture, ethics and identity, which helps us understand people. Every human being is different yet the same. My compositions are the observation of people around me, including myself. My recent works are based on cultural disparities. Being an immigrant of New York, I always compare my lifestyle, which I was living before in India. My research study's primary aim and objective are to investigate the effect of lifestyle changes between two cultures disparities. Due to many surprises, I felt great joy and struggle in adopting new lifestyles. However, I have always tried to define lifestyle through my creative artwork, keeping aside all the matters. I have always tried to convert all the unfavorable circumstances into possibilities and have accepted them as opportunities.

The self Portrait 3.0

11in X 8in X 8in | Bronze, Marble This sculpture perfectly depicts my situation when I first arrived in America, just like that of a pregnant lady, excited about what future beholds, yet nervous about what challenges it might bring along. Hence, the half belly + half head. Also, the rough and polished surface of the sculpture defines that difference of feelings.
