Shivani Bhalla’s interdisciplinary practice explores disability, care, migration, intergenerational trauma, and domestic memory. Living with Multiple Sclerosis and growing up in a family shaped by disability has informed her understanding of illness as a deeply relational experience—one that extends beyond the individual body into family structures, environments, and everyday life. Working primarily with gouache, watercolor, and layered materials on rice paper, Bhalla creates paintings, artist books, and shadow boxes that combine personal imagery, family photographs, domestic spaces, animals, and symbolic references. Her process often involves layering, repetition, and fragmentation to reflect how memory, trauma, and bodily experiences accumulate and are revisited over time.
