May 07, 2022 YCIS Community Podcast#25 Sharadha Ramjit
Sharadha a sewist, digital content creator & former TV producer, host & stylist.

Her personal project, www.SweetShard.com, has pushed Sharadha to trust her creative vision, sending her on a pursuit of excellence in sewing, which she takes into other areas of life including her professional work. Intensely challenging and creative, sewing has shown Sharadha how capable she is and to trust in her ability to bring her thoughts to life - Sharadha's work even received recognition from Artful Blogging with an 8-page feature!

How do Sharadha describe the style of clothes she makes? It's pretty much whatever she wants it to be: slick, pretty, casual, edgy, clean, athletic, simple. The sense of empowerment Sharadha gets from being able to fully choose how she present herself to the world is like none other... It's a neat feeling, especially in a world where everyone is influenced on how to show up ;)

Tushar Madaan has been illustrating professionally for the last 8 years. He sketches even while commuting or doing day-to-day tasks. He feels that inspiration can strike anytime. Therefore, he makes sure that even if an idea strikes him while he is asleep, he gets out of bed and starts working on it right away.

P.S. This session has been primarily done in Hindi, respecting the guest's preferences, sorry for the inconvenience to our non-Hindi speaking community.

Tell us a bit about yourself & your creative practice!

My illustrations are a medium via which I elaborate upon topics such as sexual education and raise awareness about the need to normalize topics such as sexual relationships so as to remove the stigma that there is in society nowadays, especially in India. My illustrations are a step forward in attempting to normalize wrong perceptions that are present in the mind of individuals regarding sexual education, sexual relationships and make individuals more aware about topics such as women orgasms and sexual health of women.

What motivated you to heed to this open call for this podcast programming?

Exposure!! Heheh! Also I think I’ll be able to be more personal about my work, with this huge audience that I will be provided through YCIS will help me to reach out to a bigger audience with a factor that I’ll be to be more personal and out there!

#artistfeature #yciscommunitypodcast 🎙🎤 @nazarbuttu

About Ayushi:
I am Ayushi Singhal, an interdisciplinary designer and visual artist based out of Delhi, India. I graduated from Symbiosis Institute of Design (Pune) in the year 2019 with a Bachelor’s degree (B.Des) in Fashion Designing. Even though I’ve worked at the core of the fashion industry, I never restricted myself to it. My work generally dabbles amongst graphics, zine-making, printmaking, illustrations, surface patterns, textile, and product design. Embodying circularity in design and adding functionality to my art has always been my core principles. You might find my work colorful, uncompromising, eccentric, frisky, raw, and mostly created from discarded materials.

April 14, 2022 YCIS Community Podcast#19 Vibhor Mudgil
I am Vibhor Mudgil or as my pen name and social media handle goes “Fido”. I am currently in my first year of Masters in Fine Art from College of Art, Delhi, specializing in VISUAL COMMUNICATION.

I was a man of science during my early years of schooling and realised medicine wasn’t my field of heart and thus shifted to pursue Art, where my mind and soul found comfort.I draw; I write. My work and opinion towards society and stigmas has changed over the course of my journey as an art student. My work reflects instances and opinions of women and friends I have been with and their shyness towards the topics and thought of eroticism and sexual desires even though the theme of my works is a part of their life.

My motive to draw erotic art and illustrations is to clear the smoke of stereotypes associated with women’s emotional health, physicality and self perception.
A woman is equally responsible and should be aware of the intimacy she desires and accepts.Their self perception should not just be limited to knowing themselves with looks but also by their desires.

#artistfeature #yciscommunitypodcast 🎙🎤
I am itisha Upadhyay, @yellowmellowcat is my artist name or brand, however it make sense! I started doing freelance illustration work 2 years back after quitting a pretty good well paying job. My creative practice differs every day. I like to mix things up a little to help myself stay motivated.

What motivated you to appear on this podcast?
Well, I don't know! Maybe because I want to be part of making a community where people understand what art is and are not as uncertain about art as a career path.

March 28, 2022 YCIS Community Podcast#16 Jaidev Tripathy
#artistfeature #yciscommunitypodcast 🎙🎤

Hi, I am Jaidev @jaidev_tripathy - an architect, artist and visual storyteller in the field of architecture and urban spaces. Often captivated by spaces, perspectives, and human behaviour in intricate relationships with their surroundings, I have set on a journey to catch and articulate everyday narratives that surround me. A part of this translates to my illustrations, which involve the depiction of urban spaces and characters. The expressive combination of hand sketches and digital rendering is aimed to prompt a moment of pause, as one viscerally engages with my illustrations.

What motivated you to appear on this podcast?
Interesting initiative. Thankful to be approached for the same and I was keen to check out how the podcast uplifts and showcases artists and their work, as well as their perspective towards it all
