Suhasini Kejriwal lives and works in Kolkata. She received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the Parsons School of Design in New York and a Masters of Fine Arts degree from Goldsmiths College, London.
Her technique synthesizes the disciplines of painting, drawing, photography and collage into a cohesive whole. Kaleidoscopic and bordering on the psychedelic, Kejriwal’s paintings revel in minutiae, overflow with information, and convey multiple viewpoints simultaneously. As in her earlier works, the artist lavishes her attentions on the surfaces of objects, articulating the differences of materials and replicating the infinite varieties to be found in both the natural and man-made worlds.
Solo exhibitions of her work have been held at Gallery SKE, Bangalore (2004), Nature Morte, New Delhi (2005, 2007, 2014, 2020), Chemould Prescott Road, Mumbai (2008), the Anokhi Museum, Jaipur (2009), Galerie Christian Hosp, Berlin (2010); she has also exhibited at numerous group exhibitions in galleries and institutions throughout the world.
She completed a fellowship with the collective Hamdasti (2017-2019) that works to facilitate dialogue and collaborations between artists and communities. She was a visiting fellow at the South Asia Institute at Harvard University in 2020.
