Raksha Patel in conversation with Alice Correia, Decolonising Arts Institute

Patel, Raksha and Correia, Alice Raksha Patel in conversation with Alice Correia, Decolonising Arts Institute.

Type of Research: Other
Creators: Patel, Raksha and Correia, Alice
Description:

As part of Alice Correia’s Research Fellowship at the Decolonising Arts Institute, University of the Arts, London, in 2021, she spoke to painter Raksha Patel about her artistic practice and the ways in which her identity as a woman of South Asian heritage has informed her subject matter, and perceptions of her work. Keen to move away from issues of ‘race’, and in an attempt to ‘decolonise’ the narrative around her practice, Patel and Correia discuss the ways that the grunge and yBa aesthetic of the 1990s informed her work as a student. Patel also reflects on how, in the 2000s, meditation and a closer understanding of the organic connections between the body and the environment impacted her work.

Raksha Patel is a Senior Lecturer on the BA Fine Art: Painting course at Camberwell College of Art.
