The artist

Maninder Singh is a creative director, photographer, and multidisciplinary designer working out of Toronto.

His practice spans visual identity and photography, the kind of work that prioritizes depth over reach. He thinks in systems, designs with restraint, and photographs the things most people walk past. He grew up between cultures, languages, and cities, and that in between space is where most of his creative instincts come from. Design and photography evolved together for him, one feeding the other, each sharpening how he sees and what he chooses to make.
