MILES SARASWAT
Miles Saraswat is an artist based in Vancouver, Canada. Recently moving from Winnipeg to study at Emily Carr University of Art and Design, Miles works in a variety of mediums including painting, sculpture, print, music, photo, and writing. Miles’ work explores themes of South-Asian spiritualism through bright colors and imagery of sunflowers. His work also often investigates the diaspora experience in Canada, as well as themes of identity and connection to others. Miles is committed to investigating how teachings from Hinduism can be relearned and acted upon through the diasporic lens, creating an understanding through his art impacted by his experience as a queer person. His work often works with imagery of the sun, bodies, environmental change, traditional South-Asian objects, and sunflowers. Miles continues to develop his practice working towards his BFA in visual arts.
