Resham Mantri is a queer, first generation Indian-American interdisciplinary artist, writer, death worker and single co-parent seeking liberation and pleasure through practicing vulnerability, exploring lineage, dismantling socialized notions of self, and deathwork. They explore these ideas across mediums including installations, essays, photos, Instagram, interviews, vintage Indian textiles, and hosting death cafes.
She has completed an end-of-life training course with Going with Grace. They hold a law degree and worked for many years as a lawyer in New York City for Legal Aid Society in Brooklyn Family Court. They hold a degree in computer science and worked for several years at IBM.
All of Resham’s offerings are informed by each other as well as the personal and professional experiences she has lived. The work also comes from the well of their own personal process of self-realization and liberation.
Resham lives and works from Brooklyn, New York and is available for writing engagements, death work, and general dismantling.
