SURABHI SARAF
Inspired by the ways we perceive temporal phenomena through movement, both visually and sonically, Surabhi Saraf uses her background in experimental sound, Indian classical music and choreography to create audio and video works. With a diverse array of techniques such as repetition, fragmentation, and multiplication, she designs sequences of rhythmic movements, creating multilayered structures of evolving patterns that slow down our perception of time.
Surabhi graduated from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2009 with an MFA in Art and Technology. Prior to that, she obtained her BFA in Painting from MSU Baroda (India) in 2005. She was recipient of the Djerassi Resident Artist Award for a month long residency in Woodside, CA. Surabhi lives and works in San Francisco.
