Born in Birmingham, Hardeep Pandhal now lives and works in Glasgow, having graduated with an MFA from the Glasgow School of Art in 2013 with the support of a Leverhulme Scholarship award. The production methods Pandhal adopts and the broader historical influences in his work are directed towards creating provocative viewing experiences that blur the categories of social realism and psychedelia. He was selected for Bloomberg New Contemporaries (2013), the Glasgow International Open Bursary (2013), the Catlin Art Guide (2014) and the Drawing Room Bursary Award (2015). Recent shows include a solo show 'Hobson-Jobson' at Collective Edinburgh (2015) and groups shows 'The Vanished Reality' , Modern Art Oxford (2016) and 'Nothing Happens', Twice: Artists Explore Absurdity, Harris Museum, Preston (2016).
