Episode 43: Swati Biswas (Artsy Way of Life)
Meet Swati Biswas! She's a scientist, dancer, and arts advocate here in Watertown. We chat about her origins with the arts, what led her to seek out supporting artists in India while bringing their skills to folks here to learn (and the challenges of working with people on the other side of the world), we scratch the surface of the innovative natural methods of art creation in traditional Indian art forms (burned your rice? make it into black pigment!), the story of the women artists her advocacy is helping, and we wrap up with her connections to the Watertown community.
Find out more about Swati, the artists she supports, and any upcoming workshops: Artsy Way of Life Instagram / Artsy Way of Life Facebook
