Kiran Krishnamurthy is our Featured Artist of the Day!

Kiran Krishnamurthy is our Featured Artist of the Day!

Kiran was born in London, but currently calls Richmond, Virginia home. He attended James Madison University in Harrisonburg, where he studied Journalism and Mass Communications.

Kiran has two photographs in our "Undiscovered." Show, "RVA Street Art No. 5" and "Luna". Kiran states that he has always been interested in photography. He continued to develop his skills in college, as he used photography as his creative outlet. You can easily see in his work that Kiran focuses on intimate relationships between he and his subject. "I strive to photograph subjects close-up to capture detail in a way that conveys intimacy, whether it’s still life in nature, such as with “Luna,” or people in motion, such as “RVA Street Art No.5", explains Krishnamurthy.

Kiran enjoys photographing subjects around Richmond, especially popular Richmond Festivals. He strives to capture the emotions of everyday people on the streets of RVA. Kiran explains the inspiration behind his piece "RVA Street Art No. 5", "I was drawn to the intensity and focus that these street artists displayed as they brought life to blank walls, and I wanted to capture that". In 2013, this piece was selected as a competition winner by Twenty20 and featured in their inaugural photography book.
