Ata Mojlish a Bangladeshi new media artist and curator currently living in Austin, Texas. His work often uses the digital media to explore the sense of self, notions of immigrant displacement, the socio-economic systems of the world, and a multilayered understanding of home.
Ata Mojlish’s work is an effort of enabling the senses that help manifest awareness on some level. His artmaking process often starts with concepts that display an accepted definition of reality. They are then reconstructed, lifting the curtain from several versions of the truth that grew a habit of staying suppressed in plain sight.
In addition to his art practice, Ata also co-founded two distinct Bangladesh based art collectives named Ghartera and Cartoon People. He currently works in Austin as the senior graphic designer of the digital media agency, Optimal.
