Hima

I am a self-taught artist based in Guwahati, with a deep passion for painting and crochet as my creative outlets. My work explores themes of identity, social impact, and the exploration of self, often inspired by the world around me. I have participated in queer art exhibitions, both as a visitor and an exhibitor, and I am still finding my voice in the creative world. While I continue to experiment with different mediums and styles, my digital endeavours can be found @eunoiac.us on Instagram. My goal is to create art that speaks to social relevance and leaves a lasting impression. My pronouns are she / they.

  • This photograph shows a mid-range shot of the author of the accompanying article seated in a brightly lit corner of the ‘Queer Objects 1.0’ exhibition hall. She is in the process of opening a crocheted tote bag, her own creation, to begin a demonstration of her crocheting art. She smiles as she looks down at the bag, a mobile phone in her left hand. A golden ‘mekhela’ garment hangs above her head, partially draping her head. Interestingly, a set of CT scan images of someone’s lungs are pasted on the garment. Another golden garment covers the author’s lap, with her tote bag placed on it. To her right, a small round mirror with a patterned wooden frame is placed on the floor. The walls around her are painted white in colour. To her right, a curator’s note titled ‘Chrome’ is pasted on the wall, with the name of the artist Mwdai. The author is seated in the same space where Mwdai had earlier presented their durational performance. Photo credit: Bhaskar Rabha
