Anjum Singh’s practice spanned a deep engagement with both external and internal landscapes, tracing connections between the urban environment and the body. Over time, her works shifted from explorations of the city and its ceaseless movement to intimate reflections on her own physical condition, rendered with sensitivity and resilience. Through these transformations, Singh invited viewers to consider the fragile yet vital systems that sustain life, and to look more closely at the unseen rhythms that shape our existence.

Her works have been exhibited at The San Jose Museum of Art, California; National Gallery of Modern Art (NGMA), New Delhi, India; The Prince of Wales Museum, Mumbai, India; Asian American Art Center, New York, NY and the 7th International Cairo Biennale, Cairo, Egypt. Her works are in the collection of the Kiran Nadar Museum of Art (KNMA), New Delhi, India.
