Anuprita Khare
Anuprita is a multidisciplinary artist, educator, and researcher whose creative journey brings together science, culture, and craft. With a foundation in Chemical Engineering, an MBA, and certification as an Early Childhood Educator, she brings a rare blend of analytical thinking and artistic intuition to her work.
Her transformation began during the Covid era, learning directly from master folk artists across India through online workshops and books. What started as a simple search for a Warli workshop turned into a profound apprenticeship under artists whose families have practiced their traditions for generations, including several national award-winning practitioners.
Through extensive research, she expanded her documentation to 80 folk and tribal art traditions — 65 from India and 15 from outside India. Her work celebrates a truth she holds close: countries apart are connected through art.
Her mission: to honor traditional artists, preserve cultural knowledge, and share the beauty and interconnectedness of global folk art with the world.
