The Heart of My Practice
_edited.jpg)
Madhvee Deb is a Singapore-based Indian multidisciplinary artist holding a Master of Fine Arts (MAFA) from LASALLE College of the Arts, Singapore, validated by Goldsmiths, University of London. Working across conceptual photography, video, and mixed media, she explores identity, memory, and the quiet complexities of human experience. Rooted in sonder—the awareness of unseen lives unfolding around us—and shaped by ancient philosophy and contemporary life, her practice relies on metaphor and layering. She lets each subject determine its form, working across embroidered images, unconventional photographic processes, and moving visuals. Her work has been exhibited internationally, including solo shows at the George Town Festival (Malaysia), Sweden, and India, and group shows at the Serendipity Arts Festival (2025), France, the USA, and Singapore.

What Collectors & Collaborators are saying
"Madhvee Deb is an exceptional and highly professional artist whose work consistently demonstrates both intellectual rigour and creative brilliance. She fearlessly tackles sensitive, often very personal, themes, approaching them with a profound understanding and a delicate touch. Her art has a remarkable ability to shed new light on complex issues, prompting viewers to contemplate difficult questions and fostering a deeper understanding. Madhvee's work is experienced, rather than simply viewed. It leaves a lasting impression and provokes ongoing refection."
