| Dilara Begum Jolly’s work fascinates with its extraordinarily rich imagery and eloquence. Stirred by strife, political turmoil and gender identity, she has produced a profoundly thoughtful body of work in paintings, drawings, sculptures, and needle piercings on photographs and film. A graduate in fine art from the University of Chittagong, Jolly received a master’s degree from the Art Institute in Dhaka, and later pursued a higher degree in printmaking from Visva Bharati, Santiniketan, India. Jolly lives and works in Chattogram. Her works have been widely exhibited. |
