E21: Rohini Devasher - Looking at science through an artist's lens

<p>"I hope when people see my art, they are able to get some sense of our connection to the world - seeing the planet and skies anew. To just look up and change their perspectives. That would be wonderful." - Rohini Devasher, artist.</p> <p>When I came across Rohini's work, I was intrigued how she used her art form to explore our natural world - how science, fiction and speculation can transform our construct of this planet. Having trained as a painter and printmaker, Rohini enjoys working in a variety of media such as video, prints and wall drawings. Her art has been showcased in museums across the world. Rohini was named as Forbes Contemporary Artist of the Year in 2014 and Skoda Breakthrough Artist Award in 2013.
