STUTI LAHA
Born :
Stuti Laha, an artist from Kolkata, West Bengal, graduated from The Government College of Art and Craft in 1993, specializing in the Indian Style of painting. While studying various indigenous forms of painting like Miniature, Fresco, and Rajasthani styles, she became enamored with the Bengal Style of ‘Wash painting.’
Her inspiration comes from the serene beauty of natural landscapes and the daily life of tribal women.
Her art captures fleeting yet extraordinary moments often overlooked, and she envisions tribal women as embodiments of feminine power, specifically depicting Durga playing with her son, Ganesh. Despite the challenges of wash-painting, Stuti finds bliss in its beauty and the lasting presence it evokes, akin to Indian Ragas.
