Nisha Mathew Ghosh has a practice that occupies the liminal hybrid space between architecture, ecology, landscape and art at a conceptual level, to question the boundaries of operation in the creative practice.
She has always been interested in social impact, and one of her recent direct social-environmental engagements is the SusTaIND project, that uses design-art as a tool to help build a circular economy in home textile waste, involving multiple producers, logistics and designers-entrepreneurs.
“My positioning within the larger interest of ecology began 25 years ago as I began exploring engagements with ecology and the environment through the lens of the architectural project and its critique of societal and environmental conditions. My work in the practice of Mathew and Ghosh Architects began to look deeply at the conceptual and strategic posturing of architecture with respect to Water, Air, Energy, Forests and Earth. I am therefore interested in inhabiting that hybrid space between architecture, ecology, landscape and art, for the good of communities.”
Nisha Mathew Ghosh has worked on such seminal architecture works as The National Military Martyrs Memorial, Bengaluru, India and The Bhopal Gas Tragedy Memorial which are conceptual works that address ecology and the posture of the built artefact in profound and critical ways. Her architecture works are collaborations with Soumitro Ghosh. She has also worked on ideational projects such as Drain Loves Lake and The SusTaIND project, both again visionary projects that bring the discourse of sustainability and its crisis to the foreground.
She has been selected to be the Curator-Designer of the India Pavilion 2021.
