Vasavi Bubna

Vasavi is a multidisciplinary designer from Mumbai, India. She is currently studying at the School of Visual Arts in New York.


Hi, I’m Vasavi! I recently graduated from the School of Visual Arts with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Design. I was born and raised in Mumbai, India, an electric city jampacked with culture and colour. This has manifested into my work in the form of purposeful, considered chaos. I seek to cultivate audacious narratives through design.
