Ashesh Maharjan (b. 1988) is a Nepalese artist based in New York City whose work explores the space between opposites—old and new, East and West, abstract and figurative.  His most recognizable work consists of a series of multicolored linocut prints in which he combines human figures with abstract forms to create a feeling of motion. He also creates vibrant prints of cityscapes, illustrating the interaction between architecture and natural elements, reflecting his ongoing interest in how the urban and organic coexist.
