Sarita Jaiswal studied at College of Art, New Delhi. After dabbling in various art forms, what fascinated Sarita the most were found objects. She uses a variety of materials such as textiles, jute and silk, overlapped with drawings to create her artworks.

In Sarita's own words, "Artists have long been interested in the formal relationship between things."
"How do objects relate to each other?"

Her work is about relationships of different kinds..
..which she finds are mostly dominated by pretentiousness, formality, calculation, incompleteness, and confusion.
Unsorted by Sarita JaiswalKochi-Muziris Biennale
Misunderstandings often remain unresolved..
..and we have learned to live with conflicts without the possibility of closure.
