Shravya Kag (she/they) is a photographer and director with a focus on queer and South Asian stories around themes of identity, community and solidarity.  Her practice is observational and archival stemming from the belief that queer existence in itself is legacy. Moving away from the standard narratives of queer trauma and resilience, Kag’s work focuses on joy and daily life. Her process is collaborative, often involving the participant in every step of documentation. She immerses herself in communities, hanging out with the participants, often without a camera and invites conversation and interpretation. Kag’s work has been exhibited at various locations such as Somerset House, London, Photoville and Art Space NYC. She holds her Masters in Photography from the School of Visual Arts.
