Keyur Gaikwad is an award-winning filmmaker and multidisciplinary artist based in Los Angeles, born and raised in India. His work moves across narrative film, music videos, photography, painting, animation, design, music, and writing. He is particularly drawn to visually driven, character-focused stories, work that feels personal and intimate while still leaving room for different interpretations.

Alongside filmmaking, Keyur has been a dedicated painter, primarily working in surrealism, impressionism, and expressionism. Painting has deeply influenced his understanding of composition, light, color, texture, and emotional tone, while writing has shaped his relationship with character, atmosphere, and storytelling. He sees each medium as another way of observing and making sense of the world.

Across disciplines, Keyur approaches creativity as both exploration and ritual.
