Gunjan Chawla Kumar is an American- Indian artist living and working in Chicago. Kumar was born in Punjab, India in 1980, and moved to the United States in 2011. She is a materialist and works widely with various pigments and textiles from around the world, as she has spent many years traveling through India and other countries in South Asia, observing age-old practices in textiles and indigenous arts. Her interest in archeology, particularly prehistoric cave paintings and related schools of art that she has been researching for many years, play an important role in carving her process and ideology.
Kumar is a textile graduate from National Institute of Design and Technology, New Delhi (2003) and holds a Bachelor’s in Arts from DAV College, Chandigarh, India (2001). Her works have been exhibited and are a part of noted private collections globally - Art Dubai, UAE, TEDx, Chicago, Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art, Donnelley Foundation, Chicago Artist Coalition, South Asia Institute in Chicago, National College of Arts, Lahore, India Art Fair, among others. She is currently a Resident at the Chicago Art Department and has formerly been a Resident Fellow at the Edward Albee Foundation, Montauk. Her works are apart of public and private collections worldwide. Website: www.gunjankumar.com
