Hello! This is me, Kaushani, the founder of Carnivalfish. I am a self-taught artist/printmaker and writer, currently living in London. 

​

I was born in India, where I spent half my life as a professional writer, writing and making digital art for businesses and musicians. During the world-changing events of 2019/2022 I made huge changes in my life too. I got married, moved to London, started my own business at Carnival Fish Design and I started putting more hours into the novel I'd been working on for centuries. 

​

What I love about art is that I'm allowed to experiment and fail, and through it I want to connect with people in unfamiliar ways. I also love that I can wear different hats in running a shop, and live out my workday with an element of honesty. 

​

In my prints and illustrations, I explore the subjects of identity, memory, mental health, and most of all, of the spaces we inhabit. 

​

I'm sometimes asked, why Carnival Fish? I've been drawn to the concept for years, moved by the whimsy of carnival goldfish that are carried off into different homes - and who knows how their stories turn out.

​

Do get in touch at carnivalfish@gmail.com if you have any questions or want to collaborate. I'd love to hear from you!
