About

Meghna Arikara is an artist hailing from Bangalore, India based in Chicago, Illinois. She is BFA candidate at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago with a focus in sculpture. Primarily working with wood, she explores the dynamics of spaces considered home as well as the ever evolving nature of tradition with migration. Distance, while a dividing force, also redefines bonds; in absence, a new relationship with tradition takes shape. Her work has been shown at the South Asia Institute and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
