hat-tip to Seth Carmichael, publisher of tasj magazine for this post:

Aakash Nihalani is fast becoming recognized as one of the US’s most striking emerging installation artists. Celebrated for his ephemeral modifications of the urban landscape throughout the US and in India, Austria and France, the young Brooklyn-based tape specialist wields an abstract narrative of isometric shapes and flamboyant hues grounded in quiet irony and idiosyncratic precision. The fluidity of his minimalist, neon patterns, which employ familiar shapes to produce unexpected visuals, initiates an inviting, living dialogue with viewers that readily adapts into sculpture and works on canvas, thereby escaping its customarily fleeting existence whilst continuing to fuse his aesthetic and conceptual objectives.
