Khimji’s ongoing interests in expanding the possibilities of thinking through shapes, geometry, and the body in relation to landscapes are often the point of departure in the works on view. Abstracted landscape forms and images from construction sites seem ensconced within innumerable repeated dots and oblong shapes, an act that makes the surface of her works tactile and acutely textured.
Radhika Khimji studied at the Slade School of Fine Art, the Royal Academy of Fine
Arts and holds an MA in Art History from University College London. She lives and works between Muscat, Oman and London, United Kingdom.
