Produced by the Museum of Art & Photography and presented in collaboration with MAP Academy, Bhuri Bai – My Life as an Artist is an exhibition of the artist’s autobiographical works. Previously a digital exhibition, the exhibition pair’s Bhuri Bai’s artworks with the research of MAP Academy to animate and intimate her extraordinary personal journey. Growing up in Pithol, a small remote village at the border of Gujarat and Maharashtra, Bhuri Bai was the first woman from the Bhil community to transfer Pithora murals from structures to canvas and paper. In doing so, this has enabled her work to travel worldwide earning Bhuri Bai a Padma Shri title alongside global regard as one of India’s most important contemporary Bhil artists. In its inaugural display, Bhuri Bai – My Life as an artist invites audiences to step into the artist’s life and story through her artworks, from a childhood in the village to global travel as a celebrated artist.
