About
Indira Das is a visionary fine artist, arts educator, and mentor who sees art not just as expression—but as revelation. Born in Kolkata and deeply influenced by India’s rich traditions of symbolism, mysticism, and storytelling, Indira has dedicated his life to helping others discover their inner worlds through creative practice.
With a background in fine arts and decades of experience as an educator, Indira specializes in mixed media, therapeutic art, and spiritual symbolism. His work blends traditional South Asian visual motifs with contemporary techniques, inviting viewers—and students—to engage with emotion, memory, and healing beyond the limits of language.
His mantra, “Art reveals what words conceal,” reflects his belief in the sacred, intuitive power of creativity. Whether working with emerging artists, trauma survivors, or lifelong learners, Indira creates a space where art becomes both sanctuary and mirror.
What’s fueled his lasting impact in the arts and education?
Deep trust in the creative process as a path to self-understanding
Intuitive, nurturing approach to mentoring
Passion for symbolism as a cross-cultural language of the soul
Indira has exhibited his work internationally and facilitated workshops across India, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East. He also mentors students preparing portfolios for art school, professionals seeking creative renewal, and educators interested in integrating therapeutic art into their classrooms.
