Biography
Shumon Ahmed was born in 1977 in Dhaka . The multidisciplinary artist tests the boundaries of different art forms through exploring and fusing the cracks between video, photography, installation, sound, performance and text to conceptualize ideas and stories that are seemingly contradictory, yet profoundly intertwined. His work with the camera and film has also been likened to abstract painting due to his experimental processing techniques with unpredictable results that yield the melancholic, often-blurred images with multiple exposures. His love for photography began when, as a teenager, he first tried capturing portraits in black and white with a camera borrowed from a friend. He didn’t know then that photography would not only become his passion but also a way of life, a tool of self expression, and an endeavor to capture the exterior and the interior, the visible and the invisible. He currently lives in Dhaka
