India, b. 1977. Based in Munbai, India, Mishra received an MFA from the Sir J.J. School of Art in Mumbai. During his residency in 2010, his motifs included animals at the zoo or embalmed animals at museums. He creates vibrantly colored figurative paintings that depict plants, animals and people who serve or sacrifice their lives for the sake of others. As embodiments of “life” in various forms, these works, when displayed, are often accompanied by a living plant or soil. For “Home Again－10 Artists Who Have Experienced Japan” exhibition, Mishra has created an outdoor installation in the shape of a flag.
