Hello!
I’m Navya Arora, a writer turned designer, I find my practice to be at the intersection of poetry, poetics and design.  

As an individual, I am intrigued by everything that lies within our body and beyond our universe. I am fascinated by the way we interact and form connections with spaces, how our brain maps out memories, or the patterns that mystify us. 

My personal and professional practice finds its overlap in the need to capture 
those moments when we are undeniably human; an exchange of memories, narratives, and cultures. I try to understand and see how our thoughts impact everything from our perspective to our physiology. How experiences in our 
day-to-day lives shape our emotions, memory, and personality. And how they form beliefs that we carry throughout our lives. My attempt through each project remains to visually connect and communicate the contours of human emotions by understanding what we do, why we do it, and how we do it.
