As Radio Rani, my collages are living artifacts of reflection, threading together meditations on liberation, community, and spirituality. I stitch archival images with the visual details of scrapbook kitsch to offer commentary on current moments and movements. My artwork has been featured in publications like The Juggernaut and displayed at the Institute for Contemporary Arts / Boston. Most recently, I was the inaugural #BreakdownTheBakwaas resident artist at Mango and Marigold Press, developing a visual art series that unpacks how the South Asian community in the U.S. can act now for Black liberation.
and it helps me understand why people are scared of womxn, trans, and nonbinary folks of color who are thriving. who are living expansive lives. who birth communities and culture. because we are independent from external validation, and we create from nothing—and that is dangerous to the status quo.
