Nishant is a photographer and visual artist based in London.
Nishant has a deep interest in the photobook as a medium. He co-founded BIND (2015-2020) - a platform for photography and a library, examining the photobook as an art object. He received The Alkazi Foundation for the Arts: Photobook grant (2016) which enabled the publication of his first book. Seeking Moksha (2017) explores the search for transcendence through a collection of photographs, written notes, found objects and sound that memorialise his own experience.
Nishant’s photography is guided by a documentary approach, where he makes portrait, still life and landscape studies, abstracting the tangible to present a quiet ambiguity. The act of seeking is a central motif in his work, which engages with the struggle for purpose and meaning. By presenting his own personal journey, Nishant invites the viewer to contemplate their own path.
His reflective and sensitive eye has been commissioned internationally lending his perspective to editorial and commercial clients. Selected editorial clients include Architectural Digest, GQ, Monocle, NYMagazine, Vogue, Wallpaper, The Financial Times, The New York Times, The Sunday Times Magazine and The Telegraph. Selected commercial clients include 11.11, Bhane, Bungalow8, Eka, Indigo Airlines, Itoh, Raw Mango, Roker Atelier and Tiipoi.
