After completing my schooling, not quite having a sense of where I wanted to be, I did what any normal Indian kid would do. Engineering. It was long before I realised we were not meant to be.
Art was a passion that I then decided to turn into education, to then become my degree of graduation. That’s where the journey took a turn.
History repeated itself when I joined a corporate job as a visual designer and realised after 2 years of work, that the straight path needs a turn again. Hence was born, Long Distance.
I’ve always lived on the outskirts of the city. So right from my college, to my friends, to my girlfriend, to my workplace, life has always been about long distances.
But it’s the distance that made me take on the journeys. And it’s the long journeys that taught me things I’d never have learnt if it were just a 10-minute walk. So, here’s to long distances. Here’s to going places.
I work as a designer on weekdays; an artist over weekends. A visualiser through the process. An observer nevertheless. A thinker above everything else. Having done my graduation in design and illustration, I’ve created identities for various brands via logos, websites, apps and everything in between.
For me, every project is a journey. So, I’ve been on multiple journeys that have taken me a long distance. And hope to go longer.
