Hi sujata, why did you pursue a creative career?
Art was always something I find solace in admist the commotion of life . However since I was good at studies and maths in general, everyone asked me to become an engineer. I didn’t know of a career path in art and hence went on to go to India’s two top schools to do my masters in Engineering and have been working in tech since . My tech journey has brought me to becoming an open source leader working with big names like Linux Foundation, Intel , Bytedance etc but art is still my go to when I want to de-stress or express something that bothers me in the society I live in , specially around social and gender inequality, environment etc. It gives me joy that I have had good fortune to exhibit some of work at major venues in US and India and the audience does love my art when I share it
