She is a graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design, and her work traverses across digital, film, and video mediums.

India – 

“These images are an ongoing conversation with my family and friends, strangers and passers-by. Some have stayed and grown up with me, some have been fleeting encounters. The time I get to spend with my subjects while making a portrait is healing, much like a session with a therapist. And each time I revisit these images, like a recurring dream, I return to a different moment where I get a chance to begin again, ask a whole new set of questions and at times ask the same questions over and over.” – Prarthna Singh
