"Dreams Are All I Have (Self Portrait)." Print

Sukraat’s artistic journey is defined by an extraordinary devotion to process, patience, and precision, driven by an unrelenting passion for music and art. Formally trained in Printmaking (BFA), he has spent over a decade immersing himself in traditional printmaking techniques, pushing their boundaries far beyond conventional practice.

At the heart of Sukraat’s work lies an exceptional and near-unprecedented exploration of layering. Each artwork is built through an intensive process involving 15 to 49 meticulously carved and printed layers from a single block, a level of complexity and dedication that is rarely attempted, and almost unheard of, within contemporary Indian printmaking.

Sukraat’s titles act as intimate extensions of his work, inviting viewers into his inner world and offering insight into the narratives embedded within each print.

​Based in Mumbai, Sukraat is a wanderer by instinct. He frequently travels across India with his tools and materials, absorbing diverse environments and cultural rhythms that continue to inform and expand his practice. This movement between place and process further enriches the layered nature of his work, both visually and conceptually.

Sukraat’s art has drawn admiration from collectors and art enthusiasts across the globe, standing as a testament to his mastery of printmaking and his fearless commitment to experimentation. Through an unwavering dedication to layering, discipline, and innovation, he continues to redefine the possibilities of printmaking in India, creating works that are as technically profound as they are emotionally resonant.
