Sriparna Dutta

Sriparna Dutta holds a BFA in Painting from the Govt. College of Art and Craft, Kolkata (2016) and an MFA in Painting from the University of Hyderabad (2019). She works in close collaboration with local communities — with a sustained focus on the experiences of women — inscribing individual testimonies onto scrolls, codexes and quilted textile works. Her practice inhabits the role of artist-chronicler where activism, community-building and documentary efforts converge, probing the ethics of representation and the potential for equitable exchange within community-oriented collaborative art making. She is the recipient of the MAP Indian Artist Relief Fund Scholarship (2021) and the National Scholarship for Young Artists, Ministry of Culture, India (2018).
