Siddhesh Gautam is a multidisciplinary artist, designer, writer, poet, dreamer, storyteller, soul searcher and an Ambedkarite in pursuit of Begumpura - a world of dignity, equality and freedom. Working across illustration, text, and visual narratives, he brings forgotten histories and voices into conversation with the present. His work documents the anti-caste movement while engaging with climate justice and gender equality. Through art, he invites us to unlearn, confront discomfort and re-discover our connection with ourselves and the world.
