Rekha Rodwittiya is an artist, independent curator, writer, and teacher having around 40 years of experience in the field of art. She has established a strong, politically vigilant feminist practice that sanctioned her representation of the female figure in a non-voyeuristic manner. The stories of women, valiant in their courage to overcome the oppression of patriarchy, are potent imprints of significance for her, and etch powerful legacies that she chooses to emulate and imbibe from. Rodwittiya states, “It is these many stories of feminist endeavor within which I have been cradled, that shapes my perception to negotiate a journey of living that places my energies to conjoin with these ancestries of determination and courage.”
She has had 39 solo exhibitions across the world, and has been presented nationally and internationally in over 130 group exhibitions, 24 art fairs and numerous residencies and site-specific projects. She has been actively involved in art teaching through alternative non-institutionalized methods, as well as being a guest faculty at art colleges in India and abroad; and is the founder and CEO of The Collective Studio Baroda. She is vocal within the space of feminist discourse, and a champion of women’s empowerment and equal rights.
