Romicon Revola
Romicon Revola a.k.a Romi is a contemporary visual artist based in Bangalore. Her art practice encompasses monumental public sculpture, installation, painting, video and digital art.
“I’m primarily interested in exploring human behavior in diverse contexts, whether it is personal identity or our relationship with the built and natural environment. My work often explores that mysterious, elusive space that lies between the utopian and the dystopian. While suggesting both an intimacy and a monumentality, my approach reflects the paradigm “the personal is the global”. I believe that each one of us is a microcosm of the universe,” says the artist. In her large scale works installed in public spaces in Bangalore Romi has appropriated the stainless steel material, often considered either industrial or masculine, to weave narratives of feminine musings.
Recognition
Romi is the recipient of the 2019 CIMA Infosys Special Award as well as the 2019 KWAA (Karnataka Women Acheivers Award) award for Excellence in Art & Culture.

Her work is also in various private collections in India and abroad. In Bangalore she is involved in several art initiatives and community art programs.

Work
Her immersive digital art project “#Who R U?” was part of “The Future is Here”, a major art & technology show curated by Dr. Arshiya Lokahndwala for the Bajaj Foundation, Mumbai. Her video “Ocean within a drop” was screened at the Birmingham Art Summit at MAC in the UK on World Water Day in 2018. Her functional art collaboration with sustainable Indian fashion brand Aranyani was showcased at the New York Fashion Week in the spring of 2018.
