Capacity building by training fresh graduates or undergraduate seniors is one of the legacy programmes. We have inclusively welcomed interested candidates to be learning team members offering working methodologies to them and gaining fresh perspectives in return.
Each member has left a strong mark via projects that have shaped Faandee’s camaraderie and carried with them hands on experience, work ethics, and a vision for personal pursuit.
Riya Panchal
“At Faandee, I contributed to research, project management, and archiving, building a comprehensive art library. My role involved artist interviews, documentation, lectures, promotions, social media, and research, deepening my understanding of art and history while strengthening industry connections. These multifaceted tasks enriched my understanding of art and history while refining my soft skills in building relationships with industry leaders.”
The Parallel Practices interview series is one of the educational projects executed by Riya adding a learning source for Art and Design aspirants, especially from the regional and vernacular backgrounds.
Komal Aggrawal
“Now that I continue working in Visual effects, design and art direction, after interning at Faandee and as an assistant editor to a senior artist Navjot Altaf, it has exposed me to challenging tasks within the field yet new to me viz. research, cataloguing, book publishing, photography and work installation. At Faandee, I learned to experiment with my career fields and opportunities with confidence. It helped me learn about many different ways to navigate within this immense cultural sector.”

Faandee has been instrumental in my growth, allowing me to develop skills in art documentation, project management, research and exhibition curation, while also building confidence in my work. I am especially grateful to the director Nikhil Purohit for his mentorship, which has helped me take on larger responsibilities in archiving, artist interviews, and educational programming. His guidance has been invaluable in shaping my professional approach.
Faandee fosters equal opportunities for all, ensuring that women are actively encouraged to take on leadership roles in areas like curation, research, and arts administration. The company also values work-life balance, offering flexible schedules that allow employees to manage their commitments effectively. This supportive environment has empowered me to grow both professionally and personally, and I am truly grateful for the learning and opportunities I have received here.
