Deesha Lapasia (b. 1998, Mumbai) is an Indian artist and curator based in Baltimore. Her practice is deeply informed by her lived experiences of working and collaborating with artists and art institutions in Mumbai, India. She has in her career engaged with leading practitioners across painting, collage, sculpture, and photography from India. With dual Master’s degrees in History and Philosophy from University of Mumbai, she approaches contemporary, visual, conceptual, and public art through both historical and philosophical lenses. Her ongoing journey involves unlearning inherited biases while developing an aesthetic that is exploratory, critical, and deeply personal.

Deesha is building curatorial frameworks that foreground experimental practices, memory, materiality, and the ethics of display. She is particularly invested in conceptual art, performance, and the aesthetics of space—examining how exhibition-making can become a site of intimacy, critical reflection, and experimentation. Her current projects focus on alternative modes of display and care, the ephemerality of exhibitions, and the poetics of space, with a particular attentiveness to sustainability, memory, and the archive.
