Orijit Sen
Orijit Sen, born in 1963, is an Indian graphic artist, muralist, and designer. In 1990, he co-founded People Tree — a collaborative studio and store for artists, designers and craftspeople. Along with his wife and fellow designer Gurpreet Sidhu, he continues to lead People Tree’s design studio — developing in-house projects as well as partnerships with organisations working in the arts and social sectors. Comics and visual storytelling have been an important strand in his diverse set of practices as a visual artist. His book River Of Stories came out in 1994, and is considered to be India’s first graphic novel in English. He is also co-founder of the Pao Collective of comics artists, and chief editor of Comixense, a comics quarterly for young readers. Orijit has served as Mario Miranda Chair Visiting Professor at Goa University, where he initiated an experimental arts and research project entitled the ‘Mapping Mapusa Market Project’, which involved students, educationists and artists. He was also Visiting Professor at the Visual Arts Department of Ashoka University. His work has been extensively published, exhibited and installed in India as well as internationally.
