Kiraṇ Kumār is an artist, researcher and writer whose practice holds a curiosity for dis/continuities between premodern and future worlds, as they play out at the intersections of art, science, philosophy and technology. Drawing from academic foundations in mechanical engineering,  media art, and dance, as well as embodied yogic-tāntrik practices, his transdisciplinary approach to research involves cycles of critical, conceptual and imaginative inquiries focused on entanglements between embodiment and environment. His works span across performance, writing and visual art as diverse modes of publication for artistic research. Kiraṇ is currently based in the Auroville bioregion of coastal southern India.
