Nisha Duggal creates relational portraits that explore creativity and performance in the everyday.  Bridging media and platforms her practice attempts to define a conceptual framework for living within an increasingly digitised and overloaded world.

Her first solo exhibition at Watermans will present a new film Things to Make and Do alongside a selection of video from her back-catalogue.  Blending documentary and simulation Things to Make and Do follows the hobbies and past-times of a disparate group of people, and reflects the artists’ interest in making a comparison between everyday leisure pursuits and the consumption and production of contemporary art.

Nisha Duggal’s films and drawings have exhibited internationally including installations at Arnolfini (Bristol), Ginza Art Lab (Tokyo), Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art (Gateshead) and Oriel Mostyn (Llandudno) and screenings at Rekalde (Bilbao), Cornerhouse (Manchester) and Iniva (London).  She has been awarded commissions by Site Gallery (Sheffield) and Contemporary Art Forum (Kitchener, Ontario).  Nisha studied at Derby and The Slade and was shortlisted for the Jerwood Moving Image Awards in 2008.  She completed the Florence Trust residency in 2010 and has work in the Saatchi Collection.  Nisha lives and works in London
