Harshita Agarwal (b. 2001, India) is a visual artist exploring the ever-changing relationship between humans and their geographic environments. Originally from Assam, India, and currently based in London, she is drawn to how we situate ourselves within landscapes, and to capturing the notion of change within them, how they shift, erode, and are reshaped over time. As a process-based artist, her work begins with site-based explorations, where experiments with the materiality of the land inform methods such as printmaking, mark-making, image-making, and mapping. She works across printmaking, installation, and mixed media, examining how landscapes are occupied, transformed, and lost over time. Having studied at LASALLE College of the Arts (2022) in Singapore, her practice expanded from ecological concerns to a broader investigation of colonial histories and land. She is pursuing an MA in Print at the Royal College of Art, London, researching landscapes in Mumbai and London. She is a recipient of the Sheila Sloss Award (2026), Printmakers Council, London. Printmaking sits at the centre of her practice, primarily image-transfer and etching, mediums materially distinct but conceptually linked, where an image transforms as it moves from one surface to another, leaving a mark that is both trace and new object. Play functions as a research method. The sliding puzzle recurs as a metaphor for environmental shift, each block moving only by negotiating the space beside it, a logic she extends into modular installations echoing urban structures while allowing organic forms to intrude. This is grounded in one question, have we been colonising our nature, a pattern of occupying and absorbing land into new identities.
