Pooja Pawaskar is a sculptor exploring visibility, presence, and identity through wood and plaster. Her work is a quiet yet bold reclamation of space—an invitation to exist fully, unapologetically.
Rooted in material storytelling, Pooja surrenders to the natural rhythms of her mediums, allowing form to emerge rather than be imposed. Knots, cracks, and raw textures are not flaws but markers of resilience—proof of process, proof of presence.
From intimate sculptures to large-scale installations, her work bridges contemporary art, design, and spatial experience—inviting us all to step forward, take up space, and embrace the beauty of imperfection.
About the Artist
For years, Pooja Pawaskar softened herself into the background—learning, like many, that quietness was safer. But art changed that.
Through sculpture, she found a way to exist on her own terms—gently but unapologetically. Her works, shaped in wood and plaster, extend into space, projecting outward in quiet defiance. They hold stories of migration, self-discovery, and the delicate balance between strength and surrender.
Now, her work exists in galleries, exhibitions, and installations, each piece a physical declaration:
"I am here. And so are you."
