TRUPTI PATEL (b. 1957) was born in Nairobi, Kenya, and studied sculpture in India at MSU Vadodara (1974 - 82) and in the UK as a Charles Wallace Scholar to the Royal College of Art (1983 - 85). Patel works  predominantly in clay, often using Indian terracotta, which has a rich red colour when fired. Her sensuous and sensitive ceramic sculptures regularly depict the female form and question the role of women in contemporary society. Most recently, she participated at India Art Fair 2025, New Delhi, with Project 88 Gallery, Mumbai and was the artist-in-residence at the Clayarch Gimhae Museum in South Korea.
