Tara Kelton is an Indian-American artist living in Bangalore. Tara investigates forms of drawing, and the relationship between human and machine, in light of new technology and tools of image production. Experiments and collaborations with digital labour, and processes typically involving relinquishing aesthetic control over the outcome, form an important part of her work. More recently her practice has focused on the diminishing role of the human in contemporary society (replaced by automation, AI and digital mediation) and the remote control of labour by western bodies and corporations.

Tara is co-editor of the publishing series Silicon Plateau, an art project and publishing series that explores the intersection of technology, culture and society in Bangalore.
