HIMALI SINGH SOIN

Himali is an artist and writer and lives between London and Delhi. She uses her travels and explorations around the world as material to think about feminist ecologies, ideas of home and communal, cross-species ways of living.

She is the recipient of the 2019 Frieze Artist Award for her work on the Arctic and Antarctic regions and their bearing on the rest of the world.

She graduated from UWC India, Middlebury College, USA and Goldsmiths, UK.
