Valay Shende is a contemporary Indian sculptor and video artist, born in 1980 in Nagpur, Maharashtra. His artistic journey began with a Diploma in Art Education from Nagpur in 2000, followed by a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in sculpture from the prestigious Sir J.J. School of Art in Mumbai in 2004. Shende continues to live and work in Mumbai, a city that significantly influences his creative expression.
Shende's art is deeply reflective of the socio-economic landscape of contemporary India. He adeptly captures the challenges and dichotomies inherent in Indian society, focusing on the stark contrast between modern, industrial perspectives and traditional, religious views. His sculptures are noted for their intricate craftsmanship, often constructed from minute metal discs, pocket watches, copper-plated fiberglass, and other unconventional materials. This innovative use of materials not only sets his work apart but also enriches the narrative quality of his pieces.
In addition to his sculptural works, Shende incorporates video art into his practice, creating multidimensional installations that challenge and expand the boundaries of classical sculpture. This fusion of media allows him to explore and communicate complex themes with greater depth and nuance.
Shende's work has garnered significant recognition and is included in numerous prestigious private collections. His sculptures and installations have been exhibited widely, both in India and internationally. Notable exhibitions include shows at the Dr. Bhau Daji Lad Museum in Mumbai, the Zimmerli Art Museum in New Jersey, the Chicago Cultural Center, the Tate Modern in London, and the Fukuoka Asian Art Museum in Japan. Each exhibition underscores his growing influence and the universal appeal of his thought-provoking work.
