Sehaj Malik (b. 2004) is an artist based between Paris and Delhi, currently completing her Master’s at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts, Paris.
Working primarily with charcoal, her practice unfolds through instruction-based, site-responsive drawing where the body becomes both tool and measure. Pushing movement to points of fatigue, her works emerge as residues of action: arcs, repetitions, and pressure traces that register the body in space.
Her thinking moves through the in-between between organism and machine, structure and instinct. Drawing from early experiences in her father’s factory, she approaches the body as a system in motion, where gesture, breath, and mechanical rhythm collapse into one another.
Sehaj has been part of studios led by Wernher Bouwens, Emmanuelle Huynh, and James Rielly, and has worked as an assistant to Diogo Pimentão in London, alongside research work with curator Joana P. R. Neves. Her recent exhibitions include Asia Now (Paris), Théâtre des Expositions (Paris), and Fresh Produce 2.0 at Method Delhi.
At just 22, her debuy solo Points of Cont(act) at Method marks a decisive moment - an ambitious, site-specific installation developed through durational, process-driven practice. The exhibition is on view until Sunday, 19th April.
