Vinita Dasgupta. India. Storyteller.  2015.  Acrylic and mixed media on paper. Size: 15.75 by 20.5 inches.

 

Vinita’s story.  The Storyteller Series is inspired in part by stories told to me by my grandmother, many of which I re-tell through my art.  I draw on images from Indian mythology and lore, mixed with my own view of contemporary women in today’s society.  I mix the then and the now.  I am a part of each of my works.
