Tara Kelton

Tara Kelton is an Indian-American artist living in Bangalore whose practice centers on informal digital labour – the invisible human effort that sustains supposedly automated systems. Kelton embeds herself inside digital services and platforms, from collaborative experiments with gig workers, to co-creating with image production studios in India, to reimagining how search engines function. Her work has been exhibited by ICA Singapore, New Museum, Rhizome, Khoj Studios, and the Kochi-Muziris Biennale. Kelton was a Y12 incubator member at New Museum’s NEW INC and she is co-editor of Silicon Plateau, a publishing series on the intersection of technology, culture, and society in Bangalore.
