‘For me, art-making is often a way of processing,’ says artist Sumakshi Singh of her practice, ‘processing death, processing grief and processing meaning.’ She has had a long-standing relationship with India Art Fair (2–5 February), having exhibited there every year since 2011.

The artist also dabbled in intricate lace works, which have ‘more to do with memory, archiving and preserving something precious’.
