Born 1991 in Kolkata, India. Lives and works in New York, USA.
Debmalya Roy Choudhuri is an Indian artist. Adopting the form of a diary, he confronts personal trauma, mental health issues and the “queerness” of identity, body and space. Over time, hiscreative practice has naturally flowed from finding a sense of belonging in one place, to connecting to people by establishing proximity to one person at a time. These dual conversations open new perspectives on the relationship between the self and the other. Currently, he works on long-term collaborative projects that engage an interdisciplinary approach towards image-making, engaging photography, performance, and text.
