Biographical History
Prafulla Mohanti was born in 1936 and brought up in the village of Nanpur in Orissa, India. The influence of his birthplace can be seen in his art; he has explained that “My painting is rooted in my village culture.” He has written about Nanpur, for example in his book Changing village, changing life . (1990)
After qualifying as architect he came to England in 1960. He was surprised by some aspects of British life, and experienced racism, surviving a vicious attack on the streets in the East End of London. His book Through brown eyes (1985) describes his life in the UK.
Mohanti worked as a town planner, but has since become an author and artist. His work has been widely exhibited, for example at the Royal Festival Hall in 1990.
