Rashmi Sathe is a designer, artist, researcher and academician from Mumbai, India. She is currently pursuing a PhD at the University of Arts Linz, Austria, has a Masters degree in Fine Arts (Critical Image Practices) from HSLU Switzerland and a bachelor's degree in Fashion Design from India.

Her PhD practice revolves around exploring non- visual images with a focus on sensorial processes and translation of senses at its core. Her artworks explore the fluid boundaries of how images are perceived, in- between the visual and the non- visual. It further negotiates the contradictions and tension between what an image can be when reduced to almost nothing versus a non-visual sensory overload. Her practice aims to create a balance between the contrasting worlds of my commercial design practice and my non -visual art practice.
