Bhasha Chakrabarti

Biography

Bhasha Chakrabarti (b. 1991) engages artmaking as mending, both literally and metaphorically. Her interdisciplinary practice spans quilting, painting, film, and installation, exploring textiles’ politics and poetics—how fabrics are made, transported, bartered, loved, gendered, classed, and lived in and with. Chakrabarti graduated with a Master of Fine Arts in Painting and Printmaking from the Yale School of Art in the Spring of 2022. She lives and works in Honolulu, HI. Select solo and group exhibitions include Archive of Divine Possessions, Tieranatomisches Theater (TA T), Humboldt-Universität, Berlin; Kochi-Muziris Biennale (2025-26); Karvat, Experimenter – Colaba, Mumbai (2024); Skin to Skin, Experimenter – Ballygunge Place, Kolkata (2023); Homecoming: Domesticity and Kinship in Global African Art, Hood Museum, Dartmouth (2023); Wonder Women, Jeffery Deitch, New York & Los Angeles (2022); Fiber of my Being, Hales, New York (2022); and Painted Stitches, Woven Stories, Museum of Art and Photography, Bangalore (2021), among others.
