Aanvik was born in Kolkata, India, as the world was introduced to the iPod. At the age of 3, when everyone was moving towards social hyperreality, he was moving countries. His work explores the collision of cultures and the creation of languages. 

Distinctly a child of the 21st century. He is an assemblage of postmodernist nostalgia, a rapidly declining attention span, and a frequent tendency to talk in the third person.
