Shradha Devkota’s practice begins with the body; how it learns space, how it remembers, how it refuses to leave. Working across image, object, video, and gesture, she explores the quiet tension between the body and the places it inhabits. Her process is intuitive and labour-intensive, allowing meaning to emerge through repetition rather than fixed outcomes.

​

Having moved through eight homes during her childhood in Nepal, Devkota continually returns to the idea of home — as refuge and restraint. Drawing from lived experience, family history, and memories that shift between imagined and real, her work asks what it means to hold on to spaces and attachments that continue to shape the present.

​

Through deconstructed images, tactile materials, self-portraiture, and archival traces, she treats making as a way of thinking. Touch, resistance, and material experimentation become both subject and method, opening space for reflection, pause, and quieter ways of being.
