Nirmal Dhiman is a visual artist, illustrator and designer, who likes to make intimate, colourful and multi-faceted narrative drawings and paintings.
In 1996, when a resident in Maidstone, he found an unused diary from 1969. He soon started to make a drawing a day, a process which evolved into a drawing about that day’s experiences.
This project has since formed the core basis of all his work and has grown into a daily ritual. Currently spanning over 14 years/5,000 entries, the visual diaries have become a personal archive of moments, meta-content and ideas.
