Asha Vaidyanath splits the solidity of the image as she prints them on loosely woven linen making reality vulnerable. As they fragment and slip through the gaps of the woven fibre, the images become more delicate and fragile. This breaking is not a rupture but a methodical outcome of the weave’s systemic construction, exposing the fragility within systems themselves. The work evokes a sense of bandaging—are these surfaces holding a broken world together, or allowing it to stay apart? In either case, they permit permeability, letting things pass through the medium, while situating the image within a subtle, underlying grid. Strands of linen at the ends of the cloth sometimes left loose suggest a compulsive coming together towards the making of new world in Vaidyanath’s imprinted imageries. - text by Anuj Daga

The faint fluidity of skies and waters of her hometown are encapsulated in the noir cyanotypes of Scherry Shi as she takes us in a dream-like landscape of memory. Printed through light on generations old handkerchiefs of her friend’s grandmother, the artist explains how “embroidered handkerchief is one of a few personal properties that women could keep for themselves as assets in history, especially in patriarchal China.” As we observe distinct moments of a quiet wooden bridge over a lake, or the space between two apartment buildings framing the sky through the domestic life oozing out of their windows, we realise that these hold special place within the memoryscape of the artist. The artworks are then daydreams on a veil – a translucent window through which we are teleported into another world that is distant, but brings it close. - text by Anuj Daga

Scherry Shi’s work displayed at the London Original Print Fair 2026 in the exhibition ‘Moments of Being’, explore the ideas of Landscape beyond place; one that lives within process, materials and emotions.

Radha Pandey’s work crafts contours onto paper to fold an eroding topography of the mountains and the water bodies onto each other. The works in themselves are cross-sections of time where in the rise and fall of sea levels and shifting terrains become more apparent. Presented in the form of a book, these artworks allude to hidden knowledge revealed only during the close reading of these specific chapters. It is here that the printed letters beyond a veil of colour become visible, demanding a discovery of a lost world. The contours lines drawn in pencil around these three textures attempt to bring the sky, water and land onto an equal plane of cartographic reading, making us conscious about the fragility and precarity of landscapes in the face of climate change. - Text by Anuj Daga

Positioning the viewer inside a mountain-top house and inviting them to sit before a stunning view of ice-covered peaks, bringing them to rest their hands on a kitschy, plastic-covered dining table and eyes drifting to half-closed yellow curtains; Benjamin Deakin highlights the stark contrast between the pristine landscape outside and the garish domestic interior. It is as if we are placed in a moral confrontation between the natural and the manmade. But the narrative flips if we imagine this picturesque view existing only as a framed photograph inside the home. Then the wall decorations, curtains, and table covers begin to feel like extensions of a distant, beautiful landscape absorbed into the clutter of everyday life. These shifting, mirroring relationships are thoughtfully rendered through his use of pigment print and acrylic on paper. The future and the past murkily reflect within the unclear transparency of the plastic sheet on the dining table onto which the artist invites the viewer to sit upon and ponder. - text by Anuj Daga

Using photopolymer etching, Mila Rae Sarabhai .rae.n.s captures everyday moments from her hometown in the city of Ahmedabad (India) onto paper. The close reading of the photographs turned into prints in bare black and white focus on form and light that are forever frozen in time. As architecture, people and shadows merge in the monochromaticism of these granular prints, they evoke a soft feeling of ruin and decay. The prints highlight the disintegrating particles of matter, merely held together in time. These impressionistic flashes of a place remain as a fading trace of memory within which the mind is allowed to wander slowly. - Text by Anuj Daga to read full essay, link in bio.

Km. Khushboo’s etching on paper displayed at the London Original Print Fair, engages with the ways in which individuals make and remake boundaries around them to be able to define their own world. The frugal, sublime and gentle form of this enclosure suggests the soft and flexible nature in which it imagines containment that is bound to evolve and change. A single opening apparent on the layered surface leaves room for the other to enter or the self to depart. Yet, the tension of the space inside remains in suspense and compactly held within the architecture of the fence. Her work acknowledges how both – the location and the self – constantly make and remake each other and remain in a state of flux. - by Anuj Daga

Km. Khushboo is the Awardee of Manorama Young Printmaker Award 2025.

Unsearch Home, by Artist Nalinakshya Talukdar displayed at the London Original Print Fair 2026 at the Somerset House. Awardee of Manaorama Young Printmaker Award 2025.

Coming from Assam, Nalinakshya Talukdar imagines inhabiting nature as his home where the skies, woods and waters meet, creating multiple crevices between their thresholds to offer experiences of nature, in one’s private hiding. However, interjecting each other in colour and form, where the continuities of contours are disrupted, the artists suggest the disjunctures that modern life brings about through man made acts. Mountains fold within themselves the woods that eventually lend resources to construct modest homes. At the same time, the mountain ice melts into its rivers – an idyllic ecological landscape appears continuous yet disjunct in the artist’s prints - Anuj Daga
