Rupy C. Tut Talk

Rupy C. Tut (b. 1985, Chandigarh, India) is a painter dissecting historical and contemporary displacement narratives around identity, belonging, and gender. Tut migrated from India to the United States at age 12, an experience reflective of her Sikh ancestors, who were repeatedly uprooted and transplanted. A polyglot who speaks English, Hindi, Urdu, Punjabi, and Spanish, Tut often reflects on the psychology of diaspora, confinements of gender, and fears of climate disaster. She is not just an innovative painter, but an ambitious mythologist using her mastery of traditional Indian painting to point toward nobler futures.
