Rupy C. Tut

Region: Pacific Coast

 Rupy C. Tut is an Oakland-based artist whose artistic practice expands, innovates, and reframes the traditions of Indian miniature painting. She mixes her own pigments and turns to hemp paper and linen to contend with and make visible one’s place in the world. Recent works focus on large paintings, presenting elaborate figures and landscapes that explore motherhood and migration through an eco-feminist lens.
