Ravista Mehra Graphic designer and Conceptual Artist ARTiculate

Ravista is a bilingual storyteller & visual communicator from New Delhi. She did her BFA in Graphic Design and Comparative Literature and Creative Writing from the Rhode Island School of Design. As a designer her practice lies in the interdisciplinary fields of graphic design, photography, filmmaking, writing & research. According to her design is one of the lenses that allows for clarifications in a world that is built around misconceptions.. so relevant now more than ever! She tells complex multilingual stories of individuals in the hope that those smaller stories will tell larger tales of nations whose voices have not been heard in the past due to the hegemonies of the West. Currently she is focused on looking at design through the lens of decolonization, which in its essence means, giving voice & visibility to minorities from around the world. She has started a design collective called Active & Concerned Citizen last year, whose focus is to help clear misconceptions of Indians living in India to the Wider World. It is a collaborative effort with other Indian artists & designers. Her specialty has been in publication design, but she has recently diversified into film & sound.
Ravista has just completed her Masters in visual communication from the Royal College of Art London.
