Kunel Gaur

Kunel Gaur is a creative director and multi-disciplinary artist whose visual style is inspired by functional design and brutalist architecture and design movement that emerged in the 1950s.

Kunel's creative process feeds on channeled thoughts or ideas and found sensibilities. Looking at reconstruction and appropriation as means to create a sensory overlap and extract new meaning, he creates a variety of assemblages from the material around him. He builds using architectural material like wood, concrete, resin, metal, acrylic paint, screen printing techniques, glass, and electricals amongst others. He often mixes his work with the written word, flirting with what could be called prose, poetry or at once both.
