Remixology: The Art of Ketna Patel

‘Often referred to as Asia’s answer to Andy Warhol, Ketna Patel is a highly prolific British-Indian mixed media Artist.


Her Art is colourful, global, multi cultural and brimming with energy, wit and valuable insights into our everyday world.’

Having lived in Kenya, U.K, Singapore and India, she has been widely acclaimed for converting her Global insights into a compelling visual vocabulary that has injected a fresh counter expression to the predominantly western dominated narrative of world art. Using different cultures and historical events, she juxtaposes mythological characters, Gods, political icons and the common man on the same canvas. There is a fresh romance between the old and the new, breaking through stringent cultural, political, and class boundaries that have dominated the world for centuries.

Her collaborations have ranged from Bollywood’s IIFA (International Indian Film Academy) and Hollywood’s Director Spike Lee to corporate giants like TATA, SONY & KIEHLS. In 2011, Tata Motors (India) commissioned her to convert one of their ‘Nano’ Cars into a work of Art, which she did using Italian glass mosaic by SICIS. Ketna’s artwork has been licensed to fashion companies, carpet houses, furniture makers, book, and album covers, and regularly been donated for fund raising initiatives from UNICEF, Elephant Parade & AWARE and more.
