Raghava KK explores the transcendence of art through the ambits of the current digital era without sacrificing the particular. His work traverses traditional forms of painting, installation and performance, while his practice embraces new media to express post-human contemporary realities. His painting exhibitions, Incoherent Scraps of Gluttony, Brooklyn Bound R Train, and That’s All Folks!, disrupt the limits of the Social and the Perceptual Self through the friction between found digital elements, instead of asserting identity.

His project SOZO - a painting machine, was developed for him by ArtMatr at the MIT Media lab. To embody his idea of distributed authorship and authenticity, he developed Pop-it and Aadona Banni, in the genres of digital and physical children’s fiction. Raghava was inducted into the National Geographic Society in 2013 as an Explorer, for pushing the boundaries of scientific exploration through art. Artistic creativity for him is a deeply de-centred enterprise shared with the users of the artwork, evidenced in his numerous collaborations with fellow artists, technologists, corporations, educationists, scientists, academia, etc. His lectures, including 5 TED talks, are renowned for inspiring audiences to expand their social and psychological selves, using art.
