Hello! I am Khyati, an analyst turned artist who loves connecting dots and telling stories. I write, I draw and sometimes I paint. But mostly, I just wonder and wander about the world.
I have somehow meandered my way into creating comic artwork on not-so-comic themes such as politics, feminism, environment and culture. My work has featured in children’s magazines Pluto and Cycle, and on comics platform Bakarmax. I co-host Puliyabaazi, a hindi podcast that features in-depth conversations with experts on policy, politics, technology and more.
One of the big projects that I was working on for the past two years has culminated into an upcoming book ‘We, the Citizens’. It is an illustrated guide to active citizenship in India, a book meant for anyone who wants to be an engaged citizen or a positive change maker. It is out for Pre-order now at: https://amzn.eu/d/bJw3Tdr

I have designed a game called “Snake-a-doo” that is aimed to spread awareness about snakes and snakebites. It is a not-for-profit project run in collaboration with friends. https://snakeadoo.wordpress.com/
I also write a newsletter about current affairs in India from a policy perspective. http://understandingindia.substack.com/
