Born December 16 1962.Bharti Prajapati studied Textile Design at the Sophia Polytechnic Mumbai and also at the National Institute of Design (NID) Ahmedabad. The people of Kutch with their ethnic style and strong cultural roots have had a deep impact on Bharti. The people and their vibrant lifestyle the contrasts of the dry arid landscape with the vivid hues of the textiles inspired Bharti Prajapati to explore a wider canvas for her expressions. Her desire to translate her experience drew her towards painting. Her canvases revel in bright colors and stark expanses of space. The sparse landscape and the open skies find a perfect balance in the compositions of Pajapatis canvases. The artists training as a textile designer helps her enhance the detailing of her canvases simultaneously composing the larger picture. A contrast of detail and flat expanses creates a harmonious blend.
