Biography
Aguru's work has metamorphosed through the years to include incorporating found objects as well as objects otherwise regarded as waste to his artistic experiments. His recent explorations have investigated the artistic behaviour of objects like wine corks, polystyrene, aluminium cans, etc. These materials reflect a preoccupation to reappropriate and reconfigure these materials to discuss contemporary issues.
