The artist representing the culture of India this year is Sindhu Surapaneni. She has been an artist for about nine years! She is more into realistic art, but is currently exploring abstract art so as to create unique art!
Sindhu is passionate about depicting the Indian culture on her holiday tree for three reasons.
1. Her Indian ancestry
2. She is amazed by the rich culture, heritage& history, of India.
3.She hopes that this opportunity will be an inspiration for all the youth in the Inland Northwest to embrace their culture!
Currently, Sindhu has some art on display, she explains saying “One of my pieces about diversity was chosen by a magazine which supports people of color and was also chosen by the duke tip university. Several of my artworks are also published in the TANA magazine and TANA which is a 100-year-old Indian organization.” You can see a few of her most recent works here!
