Vivek VC’s most recent body of work expands his ongoing engagement with memory and storytelling. Inspired by the tales shared by his grandmother and filtered through the visual language of Mughal and Persian miniatures, his watercolours conjure up multiple, fragmented narratives. These images feel familiar yet elusive—recognisable figures and animals emerge, but they do not resolve into a single story. Instead, their presence hovers in an in-between space, where recollection mingles with imagination, and narrative remains intentionally unstable. This atmosphere is heightened by Vivek’s restrained use of colour, which lends the works a magical, dreamlike quality. His practice, rooted in the contradictions of memory and daily experience, continually negotiates between the ordered and the chaotic, the real and the invented. By embracing ambiguity rather than resisting it, he creates works that echo the lingering quality of childhood stories: they puzzle, they unsettle, and they invite the viewer to dwell in uncertainty as a generative space for introspection.

Vivek V C (b. 1996) is a visual artist whose work moves fluidly across mediums, with a particular emphasis on charcoal and watercolor. Born in Kannur (Kerala), Vivek is currently based in Vadodara. Through these mediums, he develops an evocative visual language that negotiates the tension between memory, history, and imagination. His imagery often emerges from childhood recollections, grandmother’s tales, local ghost stories, as well as mythology and art history, all of which he reworks into layered and fragmented compositions. Photographs and observed details further enter his process, resulting in works that oscillate between the familiar and the uncanny. A recurring concern in Vivek’s practice is the paradoxical condition of the contemporary moment, where an overload of information, images, and experiences creates both order and chaos. His works embrace this ambiguity, allowing disconnected elements to coexist and inviting viewers into spaces where gaps, silences, and contradictions become central to meaning-making.

Vivek received his BFA (2019) and MFA (2023) in Painting from the College of Fine Arts, Kerala, Thiruvananthapuram. His practice has been presented in exhibitions including Residue of Time (in an implausible space), Berth ICCI, Kochi (2024); Kala Karma, Lalit Kala Akademi Regional Centre, Chennai (2024); Cochin Art Fair, Durbar Hall, Kochi (2023); and the Kerala Lalit Kala Akademi State Exhibitions (2021–23). He is the recipient of the Kerala Lalit Kala Akademi Special Mention Award (2020–21), the Akademi’s student scholarship (2022–23), and a research grant (2023). His residencies include Dotwalk Ajitara Art Residency, Delhi (2025), Space Studio, Baroda (2024), and the Lalit Kala Akademi Residency, Chennai (2024). Vivek’s works are in the collections of the Alembic Group, Baroda, and the Takshila Art Collection.
